Big easy

i went to new orleans
i fell in love
don't know how it happened
it's all i can think of

it may be the big easy
it's not easy to leave

met a pretty lady there
she said you'll never go
you have that look in your eye
new orleans has a hold

it may be the big easy
it's not easy to leave

my old home caught fire
burned to ash
new orleans itself
is almost a thing of the past

it may be the big easy
it's not easy to leave

as i step on my train i think
i don't wanna go
it may not always be here
and it feels like home

it may be the big easy
it's not easy to leave

i went to new orleans
i fell in love
don't know how it happened
it's all i can think of

it may be the big easy
it's not easy to leave

it may be the big easy
it's not easy to leave
