    you know            Baby please
        it hurts me so          don't go

Baby, please don't go,
Baby, please don't go,
Baby, please don't go,
Back to New Orleans,
You know it hurts me so,
Baby, please don't go.

Turn your lamp down low
Turn your lamp down low
Turn your lamp down low
Don't drive me from your door
Baby, please don't go,
Baby, please don't leave
