[Verse 1] I miss the Quarter The magnolias and the Pontchartrain French market on a Saturday I'll miss the feel of this place I miss the Bayou sunrise The Mardi Gras and the Saga Lines Bourbon, jazz, sidewalk kids With bottle cap taps, dancing for tips
[Chorus] But I'm leaving New Orleans There's too much of you in this town Your memory is like moss in the trees Every corner it's just hanging around Well, The Big Easy ain't so easy Hard to say it but baby come on I'll be rolling like the Mississippi leaving New Orleans
[Verse 2] Well I like highways So maybe LA is the place for me If I point these wheels toward the Hollywood sign All those miles to clear my mind Or I could watch a horse race on some bluegrass Where bourbon's made Catch some rays in the Sunshine State Hit Seattle if I need a little rain
[Chorus] But I'm leaving New Orleans There's too much of you in this town Your memory's like moss in the trees Every corner it's just hanging around Well, The Big Easy ain't so easy Hard to say it but baby come on I'll be rolling like the Mississippi leaving New Orleans
[Bridge] I guess our good times have rolled away Well laissez les bons temps rouler
[Chorus] I'm leaving New Orleans There's too much of you in this town Your memory is like moss in the trees Every corner it's just hanging around Well, The Big Easy ain't so easy Hard to say it but baby come on
[Chorus] Yeah, I'm Leaving New Orleans There's too much of you in this town Your memory is like moss in the trees Every quarter is just hanging around Well, The Big Easy ain't so easy Hard to say it but baby come on I'll be rolling like the Mississippi leaving New Orleans
