New Orleans (song)

"New Orleans" is a song sung by the cast of Oh, Streetcar!.

Lyrics

 * New Or-le-ans,
 * Home of pirates, drunks, and whores,
 * New Or-le-ans,
 * Tacky overpriced souvenir stores.


 * If you want to go to Hell, you should take a trip
 * To the Sodom and Gomorra on the Mississip.


 * New Or-le-ans,
 * Stinky, rotten, vomiting, vile,
 * New Or-le-ans,
 * Putrid, brackish, maggoty, foul.


 * New Or-le-ans,
 * Crummy, lousy, rancid, and rank,
 * New Or-le-ans.
