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 old
Creole beat
Golly what a spirit, you can only hear it
Down on Basin Street
Your cares will disappear,
And When you hear, Hallelujah, Old Santa is here
When it's Christmas time in New Orleans
When it's Christmas time in New Orleans
