Lyrics
Baton Rouge has the Tigers Houston has a dome Neither one has what we need We need to go home Ever since Katrina Weve bounced around She tried to wash us away We won't drown New Orleans New Orleans Lafayette likes to party Dallas has the dough Now the Saints go marching in San Antonio Home is where the heart is Home is far away Everywhere folks sing the blues It ain't the same New Orleans New Orleans Back in New Orleans Were gonna rock and roll Back in New Orleans Were gonna make it whole The heart of soul New Orleans New Orleans People call it Nawlins They call it New Orlenes The place Care forgot In a dream New Orleans New Orleans New Orleans New Orleans Words and Music (c) 2005, 2025 by Jack E. Morris
