New Orleans

G
I'm goin' down to New Orleans to see about a friend of mine
          C                                           G
I'm goin' down to New Orleans and leavin' all of this behind
        D
Headin' south from Detroit
       C                   G
I got Cajun cookin' on my mind
       G
When I get to New Orleans someone gonna treat me right
          C                                            G
Yeah in a town like New Orleans someone gonna treat me right
        D                        C                       G
I'll be high 10 Rollin' till the early morning break daylight

[Chorus]
        C                                     G
A jambalaya and a crawfish pie gonna start my day
             D                       C          G
But when the sun goes down we gonna "bon temps roulez"

Hey

                     D                C             G
Burnin' through Mississippi with the Big Easy on my mind

Down on the Bayou singing Hey Pocky Way

Down in New Orleans good peoples they's hard to find
           D                 C                G
I bet he's making gumbo and drinkin' homemade wine


[Chorus 2]
    C                                      G
A jukebox shakin' and breakin' down in New Orleans
             D                      C                      G
I'll be the highest hillbilly that Bourbon Street has ever seen
