New Orleans Blues Lyrics
Oh Lord
I love the blues
It’s in my blood
Oh Lord
I love the blues
It’s the blues I love

James is in the alley
Kicking off his blues
In the street is Aunt Sally
Double two timing shuffling her shoes

A marching band’s swinging Dixie
A church choir’s singing high
Out on the Mississippi
A steamboat chugs by

Oh Lord
I love the blues
It’s in my blood
Oh Lord
I love the blues
It’s the blues I love

Oh Lord
I love the blues
It’s in my blood
Oh Lord
I love the blues
It’s the blues I love

Down here in New Orleans
Music’s in the air
In the bar at Fat Pauline’s
The stiff drinkers are letting down their hair

There’s dancing out on the street
And in every living place
Everyone you see and meet’s
They got a smile on their face

Oh Lord
I love the blues
It’s in my blood
Oh Lord
I love the blues
It’s the blues I love

Then came the dark thunder
Washed away the blues
So much went down down under
But we’ll build it up new

I love the blues
It’s in my blood
Oh Lord
I love the blues

I love the blues
It’s in my blood
Oh Lord
I love the blues

Then came the dark thunder
And washed away the blues
So much went down down under
But we’ll build it up new

Lord
I love the blues
It’s in my blood
Oh Lord
I love the blues
It’s the blues I love

Lord
I love the blues
I love the blues
I love the blues
I love the blues
New Orlean’s Blues
I love the blues

James is in the alley
Kicking off his blues
In the street is Aunt Sally
Double two timing shuffling her shoes

A marching band’s swinging Dixie
Lord a church choir’s singing high
Out on the Mississippi
A steamboat chugs by

Oh Lord
I love the blues
It’s the blues I love
Oh Lord
I love the blues
It’s in my blood

Oh Lord
I love the blues
It’s the blues I love
Oh Lord
I love the blues
It’s in my blood
