In the City of New Orleans

You awake in the morning, in the city of New Orleans.
You look forward to the joy, you saw in your dreams.

It is now quite modern, by standards of the past.
But retains its charm and its beauty last.

Search where you may, you're certain to find,
Memories to cherish, deep in your mind.

Along about evening in the city of New Orleans,
You begin to feel the romance, you saw in your dreams.

And if you should travel, please spread the news.
About its joy and beauty, its jazz and its blues.
