Civilized Man Lyrics

Civilized Man lyrics

Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans?

And miss it each night and day

I know I'm not wrong, the feeling's getting stronger

The longer I stay away



Miss the moss-covered vines, the tall sugar pines

Where mockingbirds used to sing

And I like to see the lazy Mississippi

Hurrying into Spring



The moonlight on the bayou

A Creole tune that filled the air

I dream about magnolias in June

And now I'm wishing that I was there



Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans?

When that's where you left your heart

And there's something more, I miss the one I care for

More than I miss New Orleans



The moonlight on the bayou

A Creole tune that filled the air

I dream about magnolias in June

And now I'm wishing that I was there



Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans?

In that's where you left your heart

If there's something more, I miss the one I care for

More than I miss New Orleans
