[Verse 1]
Well, come on everybody, take a trip with me
Down the Mississippi, down to New Orleans
They got the honeysuckle bloomin' on the honeysuckle vine
And a-love is a-bloomin' there all the time
You know every southern belle is a Mississippi queen
Down the Mississippi, down in New Orleans

[Chorus]
I said, a-hey-hey-hey-yeah
I said, hey-hey-hey-yeah
I said, a-hey-hey-hey-yeah
Said, hеy-hey-hey-yeah

[Verse 2]
Wеll, come on take a stroll down to Basin Street
And listen to the music with the Dixieland beat
Where the magnolia blossoms fill the air
Yeah, and if you ain't been to heaven, then you ain't been there
They got the French moss hangin' from a big oak tree
Down the Mississippi, down in New Orleans

[Chorus]
I said, a-hey-hey-hey-yeah
I said, hey-hey-hey-yeah
I said, a-hey-hey-hey-yeah
Said, hey-hey-hey-yeah
[Verse 1]
Well, come on everybody, take a trip with me
Down the Mississippi, down to New Orleans
They got the honeysuckle bloomin' on the honeysuckle vine
And a-love is a-bloomin' there all the time
You know every southern belle is a Mississippi queen
Down the Mississippi, down in New Orleans

[Chorus]
I said, a-hey-hey-hey-yeah
I said, hey-hey-hey-yeah
I said, a-hey-hey-hey-yeah
Said, hey-hey-hey-yeah
