Well I'm packing up my band
and I'm going to a land
where people can hear our songs
and I can't wait to see you there baby
I got your letter that you wrote to me
and I just want to say that I was touched
So just make sure that you are there in the very front row
cuz I want to see my baby
Cuz he's so fine and everytime I get to New Orleans
I find the time for the man who came to see me
when I was in the city
and I just cannot let him go no no no no no way
well here I am in New Orleans now baby ooh baby there you are
in the front row with your columbian cigar
I can't miss you baby with that big straw hat
and them holie jeans baby you know I like you rough like that
you're looking so fine you're blowing my mind
and I can't wait to end the show so I can be with you baby and hold you oh so close
oooh my love my man in New Orleans
the show is over you've got your backstage pass, please ask for me
we'll take a ride and get some ribs in a long stretch limousine
and when we're done we'll have some wine and then make some time
you and me up til a quarter to three

I love my man from New Orleans
I love my man, mmmm I love my man from New Orleans
