Do you know what it means to miss new orleans And miss it each night and day I know I'm not wrong... This feelings gettin stronger The longer, I stay away Miss them moss covered vines...the tall sugar pines Where mockin birds used to sing And id like to see that lazy mississippi...hurryin into Spring The moonlight on the bayou.......a creole tune.... That Fills the air I dream... About magnolias in bloom......and I'm wishin I Was there Do you know what it means to miss new orleans When thats where you left your heart And theres one thing more...I miss the one I care for More than I miss new orleans The moonlight on the bayou.......a creole tune.... That Fills the air I dream... About magnolias in bloom......and I'm wishin I Was there Do you know what it means to miss new orleans When thats where you left your heart And theres one thing more...I miss the one I care for More.....more than I miss.......new orleans
