New Orleans Night Lyrics

Where I come from treats me fine

Cityscapes and neon lights

Subway cars and all night dives

Oh where I come from treats me fine

Why I left I still don't know

I just packed my bags and walked out the door

I guess I'm still looking for a place called home

Oh why I left, I still don't know

Have you ever seen a West Texas sunrise

You ever been lost in the Northwest pines

Have you ever heard a Dixie brass band play the Basin Street Blues on a New Orleans night

I've had lovers and I've had friends

Some I may not see again

Cause I broke some ties I just can't mend

Oh I've had lovers and I've had friends

When I'm leaving I just can't say

It might be tomorrow

Might have been today

Oh but darling know that you're not to blame

Oh when I'm leaving

I just can't say

You ever seen a West Texas sunrise

You ever been lost in the Northwest pines

Have you ever heard a Dixie brass band play the Basin Street Blues on a New Orleans night

Have you ever seen a West Texas sunrise

Have you ever been lost in the Northwest pines

Have you ever heard a Dixie brass band play the Basin Street Blues on a New Orleans night

Play the Basin Street Blues on a New Orleans night

Play the Basin Street Blues on a New Orleans night
