Seen a lot of people come through New Orleans
Get down in the “Easy” for a change of scene
Now the word is out all over this old town
The big time for this comin’, we gonna throw on down

Must be the water
Mississippi river is alive
Must be New Orleans
More than just a alligator pie

Known around the world for the crawfish meat
Got everybody jammin to the Creole beat
Comin far and wide just to see the show…
It’s rockin in the Bayou so let everybody know

Must be the water
Mississippi river is alive
Down in New orleans
More than just alligator pie
Gotta be the water
Make you play all day and jam all night
Down in new Orleans
Swamp water makes you lose your mind

No matter where you’re from you ain’t seen nothing yet
Til you come around party down in Lafayette
My brother serve you up with their ettoufe’
Just ask for any Broussard if you come this way

Must be the water
Mississippi river is alive
must be New Orleans
More than just alligator pie
Gotta be the water
Make you play all day and jam all night
Must be New Orleans
Swamp water make you lose your mind

No matter if you fly here drive here come in on the train
I guarantee that when you leave you won’t be the same
If the ladies don’t get you then the hospitality will
If anybody asks you, you can say it for real
It was New Orleans
Mississippi river is alive
More than just alligator pie
Something in the water
Make you Play all day and jam all night
Come on jump on in you know the waters fine
Cmon every body sing
