Do You Know What It Means To Miss New Or — текст песни (Manhattan Transfer)

Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans
And miss it each night and day
I know I`m not wrong... this feeling`s gettin` stronger
The longer, I stay away
Miss them moss covered vines...the tall sugar pines
Where mockin` birds used to sing
And I`d like to see that lazy Mississippi...hurryin` into spring

The moonlight on the bayou.......a Creole tune.... that fills the air
I dream... about Magnolias in bloom......and I`m wishin` I was there

Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans
When that`s where you left your heart
And there`s one thing more...I miss the one I care for
More than I miss New Orleans

(instrumental break)

The moonlight on the bayou.......a Creole tune.... that fills the air
I dream... about Magnolias in bloom......and I`m wishin` I was there

Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans
When that`s where you left your heart
And there`s one thing more...I miss the one I care for
More.....more than I miss.......New Orleans
