I'm standing under Vegas lights and black nights
But my heart is in NAWLIN'S tonight
Lost in a neon glow
Dreaming of the bayou's flow
Every beat of the drum takes me back home
Where the music never fades and the spirits roam
Nawlin's is calling my name
Like a silent song
Take me back to the crescent city
Where the jazz plays sweet and pretty
I wanna dance under the Louisiana sky
In the land where my soul can truly fly
The stage may be grand
But my roots run deep
In the streets of New Orleans where my heart finds its keep
The rhythm of the Delta runs through my veins
Calling me home in sweet refrains
Where the Mississippi flows
My spirit knows
Take me back to the crescent city
Where the jazz plays sweet and pretty
I wanna dance under the Louisiana sky
In the land where my soul can truly fly
Take me back to the crescent city
Where the jazz plays sweet and pretty
I wanna dance under the Louisiana sky
In the land where my soul can truly fly
Take me back to the crescent city
Where the jazz plays sweet and pretty
I wanna dance under the Louisiana sky
In the land where my soul can truly fly
In the land where my soul can truly fly
