Christmas In New Orleans - Elvis & Friends, Louis Armstrong

Magnolia trees at night, sparkling bright

Fields of cotton look wintry white

When it’s Christmas time in New Orleans

A barefoot choir in prayer fills the air

Mississippi folks gathering there

'Cause it’s Christmas time in New Orleans

You’ll see a Dixieland Santa Claus

Leading the band to a good old Creole beat

Golly, what a spirit, you can only hear it

Down on Basin Street

Your kids will disappear, when you hear

Hallelujah, St. Nicholas is here

When it’s Christmas time in New Orleans

You’ll see a Dixieland Santa Claus

A leading the band to a good, good old Creole beat

And golly, what a spirit and you can only hear it

A down on Basin Street

Your kids will disappear and when you hear

Hallelujah, old Santa is near

When it’s Christmas time in New Orleans

Yes, when it’s Christmas time

It’s Christmas time in New Orleans
