Basin Street Blues en Benny Goodman

Won't you come along with me
To the Mississippi
We'll take the boat to the land of dreams
Deep down the river, down to New Orleans

The band's there to meet us
Old friends to greet us
Where all the dark and the light folks meet
This is Basin Street

Basin Street is the street
Where dark and light always meet
In New Orleans the land of dreams
You'll never know how nice it seems
Or just how much it really means

Glad to be oh yessiree
Where welcome's free, dear to me
Where I can lose
My Basin Street blues

Ain't you glad you came with me
Along the Mississippi
You saw the place where all folks meet
Heaven on earth, they call it Basin Street
