Basin Street is the street Where all them characters from the First Precinct meet In New Orleans, city of a million dreams And you'll never know how nice it seems When you're way down South in New Orleans You'll be huggin' and a-kissin' That's what I been missin', yeah Hear all that good music, Lord, if you just listen Yeah, New Orleans is truth That's why I got these Basin Street blues I'm tellin' ya, Basin Street, that's the street Where all the ghouls from Storyville and the St. Louis cemetary meet New Orleans, land of a million dreams You'll never beat them rice and beans Way down South in New Orleans Basin Street, that's the street Yeah, where ev'rybody sooner or later gonna meet New Orleans, yes, it's true I got those Basin Street blues Ain't you glad you went with me On down that Mississippi We took a boat to the land o' dreams Heaven on earth, they call it Basin Street Now ain't you glad you went with me Straight on down that Mississippi We took a boat to the land o' dreams A heaven on earth, they call it Basin Street
