Basin Street Blues Lyrics - Earl Hines

Won't you come and go with me 

Down that Mississippi 

We'll take a boat to the land of dreams 

Come along with me on, down to New Orleans 

 

Now the band's there to greet us 

Old friends will meet us 

Where all them folks goin to the St. Louis cemetery meet 

Heaven on earth, they call it basin street 

 

I'm tellin' ya, basin street, is the street 

Where all them characters from the first street they meet 

New Orleans, land of dreams 

You'll never miss them rice and beans 

Way down south in new orleans 

 

They'll be huggin', and a kissin' 

That's what I been missin' 

And all that music, lord, if you just listen' 

New Orleans, I got them basin street blues
