Do you know what is means to miss New Orleans
I miss it, each night and day
The longer I stay away
Miss the moist covered vines

The tall sugar pines
Where mocking birds use to sing
And I like to see the lazy Mississippi
Are hurrying to spring

The Mardi Gras memories
Of creole tunes that fill the air
I dream of oleanders in June
And soon I'm wishing that I was there

Do you know what is means to miss New Orleans
And there is something more
I miss the one I care for
More than I miss New Orleans
