GOIN' BACK TO NEW ORLEANS

I don't care if I have to borrow, steal, or beg
And if I have to walk I'm goin' on my own two leg
Wrap up all my business here and gimme whatever's left
I gotta get back on that road before I hurt myself
I'm goin' back to New Orleans
Honey, you just got to let me go
I'm goin' back to New Orleans
Lay my bed out on the floor

I'm not sayin' I don't like Houston
I like Houston pretty well
And if I was born in Houston I'd say
Houston's swell
But New Orleans is where I'm from,
It's where I was born and bred,
If I don't see her soon,
I'm gonna go out of my head
I'm goin' back to New Orleans
Honey, you just got to let me go
I'm goin' back to New Orleans
Lay my bed out on the floor

Don't say I don't know what I'm in for
It ain't gonna be like fallin' off a log
I'm gonna have to sing for my supper
I'm gonna be livin' like a dog
But I'd rather sing for my supper there
Than sing anywhere else
I'd rather be a dog in New Orleans
Than a king anywhere else
I'm goin' back to New Orleans
Honey, you just got to let me go
I'm goin' back to New Orleans
Lay my bed out on the floor
