Lyrics
[Verse 1] Won't you come along with me To the Mississippi We'll take the boat to the land of dreams Steam down the river down to New Orleans The band's there to meet us And old friends to greet us Where all the people always meet Heaven on earth they call it Basin Street [Chorus] Basin Street is the street Where the elite always meet Down in New Orleans the land of dreams You'll never know how nice it seems Or just how much it really means Just to be oh yes-sir-ee Where welcome's free are dear to me Where I can lose My Basin Street blues [Verse 2] Ain't you glad you came with me Way down to the Mississippi We took the boat to the land of dreams Steam down the river to New Orleans [Chorus] Basin Street is the street Where the elite always meet Down in New Orleans the land of dreams You'll never know how nice it seems Or just how much it really means Just to be oh yes-sir-ee Where welcome's free are dear to me Where I can lose My Basin Street blues
