Christmas In New Orleans

Magnolia trees at night
Sparkling bright
Fields of cotton look wintery white
When it's Christmas time in New Orleans

A barefoot choir in prayer
Fills the air
Mississippi folks gathering there
'Cause it's Christmas time in New Orleans

You'll see a dixieland Santa Claus
Leading the band to a good old Creole beat
Golly what a spirit
You can only hear it
Down on Basin Street

Your cares will disappear
When you hear
"Hallelujah St. Nicholas is here"
When it's Christmas time in New Orleans

You'll see a dixieland Santa Claus
Leading the band to a good- good old Creole beat
And golly what a spirit
And you can only hear it
Down on Basin Street

Your cares will disappear
And when you hear
"Hallelujah Old Santa is near"
When it's Christmas time in New Orleans

Yes, when it's Christmas time
It's Christmas time in New Orleans
