new orleans

lyric + music by skylark

i was living my dream just the other day

when around come some hurricane to blow my dream away

now i don’t care what nobody do or what nobody say

i’m gonna throw my cares to that mean ol’ wind

and let the ol’ bons temps rouler

new orleans, new orleans

she’s the finest town you’ve ever seen

so let it blow and let the river flow

but let the good times roll in new orleans

don't need much money to have lots of fun

you’re sure to make a friend before the day is done

so just come on down in the heart of town and see what i mean

we let the good times roll in new orleans
