If it wasn't for the lines that wind side by side
I'd be lying next to her, next to her tonight
Sweet New Orleans that's where my girl she waits for me
Hair so long and eyes so green
She's the prettiest girl I've ever seen
Don't you know the ice and snow
Is sneaking through this boy's window
Don't you know how much I hate to be so cold and so alone
I'm coming home
If it wasn't for the lines that wind side by side
I'd be lying next to her, next to her tonight
