Lyrics:

Basin Street is the street
Where the good folks always meet
In New Orleans
The land of dreams
You'll never know how nice it seems
Just how much it really means
Glad to be, yessiree
Where welcome's free
Dear to me
Where I can lose
My Basin Street blues


Basin Street is the street
Where the good folks always meet
In New Orleans
The land of dreams
You'll never know how nice it seems
Or just how much it really means
Glad to be, yessiree
Where welcome's free
Dear to me
Where I can lose
My Basin Street blues
