She said baby our love�s just like your songs

The beat ain�t bad but the words are all wrong

It�s time to pack my bags, it�s time to just move on

She sang Johnny I�m gone, gone, gone

And she was gone



Me and Leigh met summer of �95

In a burgundy dress lookin� finer than a French wine

A Cajun queen with another side

She was a schoolboy�s dream, I was out of my mind

She was lookin� fine

She said: �You want to drive me home�

But what I didn�t know�



Ooh, ooh - I was dancing with the Queen of New Orleans

Ooh, ooh - dancing in the street of New Orleans

Ooh, ooh � dancing cheek to cheek in New Orleans

Ooh, ooh � it was almost like a dream



That night I made a move, man I fell hard

When I put my hands in her cookie jar

She was more than a girl, she was a cabaret star

I was a deer in the light of speeding car

Nothing�s what it seems

She was a Venus de Milo in her sister�s jeans



Ooh, ooh - I was dancing with the Queen of New Orleans

Ooh, ooh - dancing in the street of New Orleans

Ooh, ooh � dancing cheek to cheek in New Orleans

Ooh, ooh � it was almost like a dream



Ooh, ooh - I was dancing with the Queen of New Orleans

Ooh, ooh - dancing in the street of New Orleans

Ooh, ooh � dancing cheek to cheek in New Orleans

Ooh, ooh � dancing with the Queen down Bourbon Street



Ooh, ooh - I was dancing with the Queen of New Orleans

Ooh, ooh - dancing in the street of New Orleans

Ooh, ooh � nothing�s what it seems in New Orleans

Ooh, ooh � dancing with the Queen down Bourbon Street



Ooh, ooh � I was dancing with the Queen of New Orleans
