Do You Know What It Means to Miss New Orleans? - 1996 Remastered - Louis Armstrong

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'd like to see the lazy Mississippi

A-hurrying into Spring

Oh, the Mardi Gras memories

Of creole tunes that filled the air

I dream of oleanders in June

And soon I'm wishing that I was there

Do you know what it means

To miss New Orleans

When that's where you've left your heart

And there's something more

I miss the one I care for

More than I miss New Orleans
