Save My Soul

I walk the street's of New Orleans

With the girl of my dreams

I've seen a dozen brass bands play and swing

While little children laugh, dance and sing

I've seen old men drunk, singin' the blues

With top hats', canes and spectator shoes

I consider myself lucky to have fallen in love

With a girl, a city and the river of mud

Let me know

Where I can go to save my soul?

Let me know

Where I can go to save my soul?

I had a drink with ol' Louies' ghost

He was our most gracious host

I've heard Gabriel sing and play his horn

And lived to see the day both my babies were born

I love Jelly, Fats, Fes and King

They were the ones that taught the world to swing

I consider myself lucky to have fallen in love

With the music, a city and the river of mud

Let me know

Where I can go to save my soul?

Let me know

Where I can go to save my soul?

New Orleans, New Orleans

It's where I can go to save my soul
