"Walking to New Orleans" Lyrics

(Antonio Domino - Dave Bartholomew - Robert Guirdy)

This time I'm walkin' to New Orleans
I'm walkin' to New Orleans
I'm gonna need two pair of shoes
When I get to walkin' the blues
When I get back to New Orleans.

I've got my suitcase in my hand
Now ain't that a shame
I'm leaving here today
For I'm going back home to stay
Yes, I'm walkin' to New Orleans.

--- Instrumental ---

You used to be my honey
Till you spent all my money
No use for you to cry
I'll see you by and by
Because I'm walkin' to New Orleans.

I've got no time for talking
I've got to keep on walking
New Orleans is my home
That's the reason why I'm gone
Yes, I'm walkin' to New Orleans.

Yes, I'm walkin' to New Orleans.
Yes, I'm walkin' to New Orleans...
