Louisiana purchase, I'll tell you what it means

It means I'd like to sell you New Orleans

Come on, come on

And you all can go to town way down in New Orleans



Louisiana salesman with nothing in his jeans

That's why I'd like to sell you New Orleans

Come on, come on

And do all the things there are to do in New Orleans



Where does that heat come from?

That rhythmic beat come from?

And that red meat come from?

New Orleans



Louisiana purchase, I told you what it means

So won't you let me sell you New Orleans?

Come on, come on

And you all can go to town way down in New Orleans
