Lyrics of Hello new orleans

Standin here beside this freeway wishing i was high
Wondering why she said she loved me then she said goodbye
Im down to my last dollar in these faded old blue jeans
So adios to amarillo, hello new orleans

Her hair was made of summer sunlight the moon lit in her eyes
Her voice would ride the wind at midnight across the starry skies
Love is blind thats what they tell me in all those magazines
So adios to amarillo, hello new orleans

We talked about our lives together we talked about our plans
We walked through rain and windy weather across the shifting sands
She took the car thats how i know this aint no crazy dream
So adios to amarillo, hello new orleans

Ill eat my fill of jambalaya and crawfish etouffe
Ill drink the mississippi dry, laissez les bon temps rouler
Ill trade her memory in on one of those cajun queens
So adios to amarillo, hello new orleans
So adios to amarillo, hello new orleans
