BILLIE HOLIDAY

- Do You Know What It Means To Miss New Orleans Lyrics

Do you know what is 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 moist covered vines
The tall sugar pines

Where mocking birds used to sing
And I'd like to see the lazy Mississippi
A hurrying into spring
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 left your heart
And there's something more
I miss the one I care for
More than I miss New Orleans

Also it's 'The moonlight on the bayou' not 'the mardi gras memories' and 'A creole tune' and 'magnolia's in June' not 'oleanders'

Beautiful song by both Louis Armstrong and Billie Holiday. Lyrics correction: It's 'moss-covered vines,' not 'moist covered vines.' If you've ever been to 'Nawlins,' you know what I mean.
