Do you know what is means to miss new orleans

I miss it, each night and day

The longer i stay away

Miss the moist covered vines

The tall sugar pines

Where mocking birds use to sing

And i like to see the lazy mississippi

Are hurrying to spring

The mardy grass memories

Of creool tunes that fill the air

I dream of orleanders in june

And soon i'm wishing that i was there

Do you know what is means to miss new orleans

And there is something more

I miss the one i care for

More than i miss new orleans
