Lyrics:

Well, way down yonder in New Orleans

In the land of the dreamy scenes

There's a garden of Eden

That's what I mean, ah



Creole babies with flashin' eyes

Softly whisper with tender sighs

Stop, oh, won't you give your lady fair a little smile

Stop, you bet your life you'll linger there a little while

There is heaven right here on earth

With those beautiful queens

Way down yonder in New Orleans



Way down yonder in New Orleans

Way down in the land of the dreamy scenes

There's a garden of Eden

You know that's what I mean



Creole babies with flashin' eyes

Softly whisper with tender sighs, stop

Oh won't you give your lady fair a little smile

Stop, you bet your life you'll linger there a little while



They've got angels right here on earth

Wearing little blue jeans

Way down yonder in New Orleans



Stop, oh won't you give your lady fair a little smile

Stop, you bet your life you'll linger there a little while

There is heaven right here on earth

With those beautiful queens

Way down yonder in New Orleans



Way down yonder in New Orleans

In the land of the dreamy scenes

There's a garden of Eden

That's what I mean



Creole babies with flashin' eyes

Softly whisper with tender sighs

Oh stop oh, won't you give your lady fair, a little smile

I gotta stop, you bet your life you'll linger there a little while

There is heaven right here on earth

With those beautiful queens

Way down yonder in New Orleans
