Christmas In New Orleans
Composer(s): Dick Sherman - Joe Van Winkle
Performer(s): Louis Armstrong
and multiple other artists
Magnolia trees at night, sparkling bright
Fields of cotton look wintery white
When it's Christmastime in New Orleans
A barefoot choir in prayer fills the air
Mississippi folks gathering there
'Cause it's Christmastime 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 kids will disappear, when you hear
Hallelujah, St. Nicholas is here
When it's Christmastime in New Orleans
You'll see a dixieland Santa Claus
A-leading the band to a good, good old Creole beat
And golly what a spirit, and you can only hear it
A-down on Basin Street
Your kids will disappear, and when you hear
Hallelujah, old Santa is near
When it's Christmastime in New Orleans
Yes, when it's Christmastime
When it's Christmastime in New Orleans
