Save My Soul

[Verse 1]
I walk the streets of New Orleans
With a girl of my dreams
I've seen a dozen brass bands play and swing
While little children laugh, dance, and sing

I've seen old men, drunk, singin' the blues
With top hats and canes and spectator shoes
I consider myself lucky to have fallen in love
With a girl, the city, and the river of mud

[Chorus]
Let me know, let me know
Where I can go to save my soul
Let me know, let me know
Where I can go to save my soul
Where I can go to save my soul, yeah

[Verse 2]
I had a drink with old Louie's ghost
He was the most gracious host
I've heard Gabriel singin' and playing his horn
And lived to see the day both my babies were born

I love Jelly, Fats, Fes and King
They were the ones that taught the world to swing
I consider myself lucky to have fallen in love
With the music, the city, and the river of mud

[Chorus]
Let me know, let me know
Where I can go to save my soul
Let me know, let me know
Where I can go to save my soul
Where I can go to save my soul
New Orleans, New Orleans
Where I can go to save my soul
Where I can go to save my soul, Yeah

[Verse 3]
I walk the streets of New Orleans
With a girl of my dreams
I've seen old men, drunk, singin' the blues
With top hats and canes and spectator shoes

I consider myself lucky to have fallen in love
With a girl, the city, and the river of mud

[Chorus]
Let me know, let me know
Where I can go to save my soul
Let me know, let me know
Where I can go to save my soul
Let me know, let me know
Where I can go to save my soul
Where I can go to save my soul

[Outro]
New Orleans, New Orleans
Where I can go to save my soul
New Orleans, New Orleans
Where I can go to save my soul
Where I can go to save my soul
