Hank Snow - My Little Ole Home Down In New Orleans Lyrics

I never knew that the place I grew is the grandest place on earth

Till I roamed around from town to town but now I know what it's worth

Listen while I'll tell you bout the place I mean

It's my little ole home way down in New Orleans



In the sunny south where the black boat flows that's where I long to be

The Dixie land where the white cotton grows is calling now to me

And soon I'll be in the land of my dreams

And that's my little ole home way down in New Orleans

[ fiddle ]

I've been east and I've been way out west I've been around most everywhere

Now I'm heading south for a good long rest I'll be glad when I get there

All the wonder things in the world it seems

Are a waiting for me way down in New orleans

In the sunny south...

Yes that's my little ole home way down in New Orleans
