Rollin' down to Pontchartrain
Honeysuckle running through her veins
Biting down on the great Big Easy
Hold on till the levee breaks

Woah, woah, woah, woah (Oh yeah)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Wooh)

Baptize you up in the muddy water
Bring you down, down, down to New Orleans, wooh
Wash the sweet salt sweat from your mortal body
Woah, baby, oh, baby, now we gon' live forever

Gon' live forever, live forever
Way down in New Orleans
Woah, yeah, woah
Down in New Orleans, oh, baby

Up Canal, down Magazine
Dakota jumped out Bourbon Street
When the sun goes down, wake me up
When the sun comes up, I'm going down, wooh

Woah, woah, woah, woah (Yeah)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Baptize you up in the muddy water
Resurrect you down, down, down to New Orleans, wooh
Wash the sweet salt sweat from your mortal body
Woah, baby, oh, baby now, we gon' live forever

We gon' live forever, we gon' live forever
Way down in New Orleans
Woah, yeah, woah
Down in New Orleans, wooh

Yeah, yeah, ooh
We gon' live forever down in New Orleans
Down in New Orleans
Down in New Orleans, hey
Down in New Orleans, yeah

[Guitar solo]

Oh yeah
Ooh, baby, now
We gon' live forever
Way down in New Orleans
