In Basin street is the street
~#**************#~
Where all the boys and the boot folks meet
~#**************#~
Down the New Orleans, and the land of dreams
~#**************#~
And youll never know how nice it seems
~#**************#~
Not just how much it really means
~#**************#~
Laloli
~#**************#~
Go give to me, yes sirree
~#**************#~
Give to me, yes sirree
~#**************#~
Cant you see baby
~#**************#~
I can’t lose, lose good all basin street blues
~#**************#~
Never know how nice it seems
~#**************#~
Just how much it really means
~#**************#~
Ehh I see the moon and the moon is pale
~#**************#~
And I look like it takes some cat to jail
~#**************#~
Now its a moon is pale the sun and the the sun is gone
~#**************#~
And the steam wants to come in and it splashes on the good
~#**************#~
Uhh uhh
~#**************#~
Ehh babasdodo
~#**************#~
And the pale moon shining on the fields below
~#**************#~
Folks are singing songs soft and low, you
~#**************#~
Neednt tell me bob cause I know
~#**************#~
Its sleepy time down south
~#**************#~
Soft wind blowing through the pinewood trees
~#**************#~
And the folks down there live a life of ease
~#**************#~
When old mammy falls upon her knees
~#**************#~
Its sleepy time down south
~#**************#~
Steamboats on the river coming or going
~#**************#~
Splashing the night die
~#**************#~
Hear babaahb… banjos ringing, everybody singing
~#**************#~
They dance til the break of day, hey
~#**************#~
Dear old southland and his dreamy songs
~#**************#~
And it Takes me back there where I belong
~#**************#~
How Id love to be in my mammys arms
~#**************#~
When its sleepy time down south
~#**************#~
Steamboats on the river coming or going
~#**************#~
Splashing the night die
~#**************#~
