Berlin Irving Louisiana Purchase Lyrics

Louisiana Purchase Lyrics

Louisiana purchase, I'll tell you what it means
It means I'd like to sell you New Orleans
Come on, come on 
And you all can go to town way down in New Orleans

Louisiana salesman with nothing in his jeans
That's why I'd like to sell you New Orleans
Come on, come on
And do all the things there are to do in New Orleans

Where does that heat come from?
That rhythmic beat come from?
And that red meat come from?
New Orleans

Louisiana purchase, I told you what it means
So won't you let me sell you New Orleans?
Come on, come on
And you all can go to town way down in New Orleans
