Leaving New Orleans

Leaving New Orleans - Jordan Davis

Written by：Jordan Davis/David Frasier/Lonnie Lee Fowler

I'll miss the quarter the magnolias

And the Pontchartrain

And the French market on a Saturday

I'll miss the feel of this place

I'll miss the bayou sunrise

The Mardi Gras and the second lines

Bourbon jazz sidewalk kids

With bottlecap taps dancing for tips

But I'm leaving New Orleans

There's too much of you in this town

Your memories like moss in the trees

Every corner it's just hanging around

Well the big easy ain't so easy

Hard to say it but baby come morning

I'll be rolling like the Mississippi

Leaving New Orleans

Well I like highways so maybe LA

Is the place for me

If I point these wheels

T'wards a Hollywood sign

All those miles can clear my mind

Well I can watch a horse race

On some blue grass

Where the bourbon's made

Get some rays in the sunshine state

Hit Seattle if I need a little rain

But I'm leaving New Orleans

There's too much of you in this town

Your memories like moss in the trees

Every corner it's just hanging around

Well the big easy ain't so easy

Hard to say it but baby come morning

I'll be rolling like the Mississippi

Leaving New Orleans

I guess our good times have rolled away

Well laissez les bons temps rouler

Leaving New Orleans

There's too much of you in this town

Your memories like moss in the trees

Every corner it's just hanging around

Well the big easy ain't so easy

Hard to say it but baby come morning

Yeah I'm leaving New Orleans

There's too much of you in this town

Your memories like moss in the trees

Every corner it's just hanging around

Well the big easy ain't so easy

Hard to say it but baby come morning

I'll be rolling like the Mississippi

Leaving New Orleans

Yeah I'm leaving New Orleans

Goodbye New Orleans

I'm leaving New Orleans
