Going Back To New Orleans

Going back home, ti-na-nee
To the land of the beautiful queens
I'm goin' back home to my bay-bay
I'm goin' back to New Orleans

Wanna see na-nan, my parin
Couzin and my ma and pa
Gonna plant my feet on Rampart Street
cnd be there for the Mardi Gras

I've been to Cuba, South cmerican way
I've been to Europe, Mexico is okay
Over in France the cats are really fine
I get my thrills below the Mason-Dixon Line

I'm goin' back home, fi-na-nee
Never, never more will I roam
Goin' to get my fill of gumbo filé
'Cause New Orleans is my home

Goin' back home, ti-na-nee
To the land of the Carnival queens
I'm goin' back home to my bay-bay
I'm goin' back to New Orleans

I've been to Cuba, South cmerican way
I've been to Europe, Mexico is okay
Over in France the cats are really fine
I get my thrills below the Mason-Dixon Line

Gonna get me crawfish
Jambalaya, red beans and some fine pralines
Gonna get some lovin' that will satisfy
Back home in New Orleans
