This Pain --- Is Deeper Than The Ponchartrain

Now That I'm Alone Again After Losing You

I'm Going Down To Basin Street

Where The Broken Dreamers Meet

Where My Broken Heart Can Beat Louisi-ana Blue



Chorus:

(Where) Those Muddy Bayous Run Just As Black As Coca Cola

Ain't No Other Place I Can Be Bluer That I Know Of

Gonna Pack My Bags Turn Up My Collar Put On My Travelin' Shoes

Go Down To New Orleans And Turn Louisi-ana Blue



You Should See This Heart That You Re-turned To Me

Now It Only Yearns To Be On The Next Train Through

I Just Want To Disappear Heading South A-way From Here

Running 'Til I Turn My Tears Louisi-ana Blue



Repeat Chorus



Instrumental Break:

I'm Gonna Pack My Bags Turn Up My Collar Put On My Travelin' Shoes

Go Down To New Orleans And Turn Louisi-ana Blue

I'm Gonna Raise The Mississippi River Crying Over You

Go Down To New Orleans And Turn Louisi-ana Blue
