Lyrics for Song: Basin Street Blues
Lyrics for Album: Portrait of Jimmy Dean [Columbia] [1962]
(Spencer Williams)
Won'tcha come along with me (come along with me)
Down to the Mississippi (down to the Mississippi)
We'll take the boat to the land of dreams
Steamin' down that river down to the New Orleans.
Now the band's gonna meet us (band's gonna meet us)
Lotsa old friends to greed us (old friends to greed us)
Now that's with a high and a low brown beat
With heaven on earth they call the Basin Street yeah.
Basin Street now that's that street where the elite always meet
New Orleans that land of dreams well you'll never know how nice it seems
Or just how it really means oh I'm glad to be oh yes siree
Where these folks say kinda how you do me and I can lose my Basin Street blues.
(In that night the piano player woke up, ha, ha, ha.)
--- Instrumental ---
Yeah, I'm glad to be oh yes siree
Where these folks they kinda how they do me
Amd I can lose my Basin Street blues
(And I even slept on the Bourbon Street after awhile...)
