Well, way down yonder in New Orleans in the land of the dreamy scenes
There's a Garden of Eden, ah, you know what I mean
Yeah, Creole babies with flashin' eyes softly whisper with tender sighs
And then you stop
Oh won't you give your lady fair a little smile
And then you stop
You bet your life you'll linger there a little while
Yeah, there is heaven right here on earth with those beautiful queens
Yeah, way down yonder in New Orleans
Way down yonder in New Orleans, woo, in the land of the dreamy scenes
There's a Garden of Eden, you know what I mean
Well, Creole babies with flashin' eyes softly whisper with tender sighs
And then you stop
Oh won't you give your lady fair a little smile
And then you stop
You bet your life you'll linger there a little while
Yeah, there is heaven right here on earth with those beautiful queens
Well, way down yonder in New Orleans
Yeah, woo
This reminds me of my youth in Palisades Amusement Park. Fantastic journey here.
Rich Lodato...thanks for listening and your comment...I also have childhood memories of Palisades Amusement Park...I also have a recording of that song from the same show as this one, but not planning on posting it to this site...this bus tour in '77, about two weeks long in different east coast cities, was the only times I played with Freddy...it was good to meet and play with him! The other acts in that tour were Del Shannon, The Marvelettes, The Regents, The Crystals, Bobby Rydell and The Belmonts
