Dion Charles - Take Me Down to New Orleans Lyrics

I long to see her and gaze upon her smile
Let her know that she's still on my mind
I long to feel her in my arms once more
Let her know why I was so unkind

So help me if you can I need some wind in my sails
To take me down to New Orleans
I'm moored up here in Baton Rouge with aching in my heart
And I've got to be there 'fore my baby leaves

I dream about her now that she has gone
Can't you see that she's the one for me
I have to reach her before she flies away
Starts another life across the sea

So help me if you can I need some wind in my sails
To take me down to New Orleans
I'm moored up here in Baton Rouge with aching in my heart
And I've got to be there 'fore my baby leaves
