[Verse 1]
Magnolia trees at night sparkling bright
Fields of cotton look wintery white
When it's Christmastime in New Orleans
A barefoot choir in prayer fills the air
Mississippi folks are gathering there
When it's Christmastime in New Orleans

[Bridge]
You'll see a Dixieland Santa Claus leading the band
To a good old Creole beat
And golly, what a spirit, you can only hear it
Down on Tremé Street

[Verse 2]
Your cares will disappear when you hear
Hallelujah, St. Nicholas is here
When it's Christmastime in New Orleans

[Bridge]
You'll see a Dixieland Santa Claus leading the band
To a good old Creole bеat
And golly, what a spirit, you can only hear it
Down on Tremé Street

[Verse 2]
Your cares will disappеar when you hear
Hallelujah, old St. Nicholas is here
When it's Christmastime in New Orleans
When it's Christmastime in New Orleans
