New Orleans Lyrics By Neil Diamond

    i said hey hey hey hey ya
    i said hey hey ya ya

    well come on everybody
    make a trip with me
    down from mississippi
    down to new orleans
    they got the honeysuckle
    blooming on a honeysuckle vine
    love is bloomin’ there all the time
    down from mississippi
    down to new orleans

    you know that any southern belle
    is a mississippi queen

    hey hey hey hey ya
    hey hey ya ya

    well come on everybody
    take a stroll with me
    we gonna listen to the music
    with a dixieland beat
    they got the magnolia blossoms fill the air
    if you ain’t been to heaven
    you ain’t been here
    now all the french moss hangin’
    from a big oak tree
    down from mississippi
    down to new orleans

    hey hey hey hey ya
    hey hey ya ya

    well let’s go everybody
    take a trip with me
    down from mississippi
    down to new orleans
    they got the honeysuckle
    blooming on a honeysuckle vine
    they got love bloomin’ there all the time
    you know that any southern belle
    is a mississippi queen
    down from mississippi
    down to new orleans

    well come on
    you got it
    we gonna dance going to new orleans
    that’s the place
    i said come on
    come on come on come on
