Composer(s): Frank Guida; Joseph Royster
Performer(s): Gary "U.S." Bonds



Come on everybody take a trip with me
Down the Mississippi down to New Orleans
The honey suckle is bloomin on the honeysuckle vine
And love is blomin there all the time
Every Southern elle is a Mississippi queen
Down the Mississippi down in New Orleans
Come on take a stroll down to Basin Street
And listen to the music with the Dixieland beat
The magnolia bloosoms fills the air
If you ain't been to heaven, then you ain't been there
French moss hangin' from a big oak tree
Down the Mississippi down in New Orleans
Come on everybody take a trip with me
Down the Mississippi down to New Orleans
The honey suckle is bloomin on the honeysuckle vine
And love is blomin there all the time
Every Southern elle is a Mississippi queen
Down the Mississippi down in New Orleans
