Lyrics
I heard the city of New Orleans gonna run today
You know I heard the city of New Orleans was gonna run today
I got to find my baby before she get too far away
Yes, I heard she was somewhere down the line
I heard she was somewhere down the line
If I don't find her, I believe I'll lose my mind
I got a special delivery and I got a telegram today
I got a special delivery and a telegram today
And I got a long distance telephone call
That my baby was on her way
You know I heard the city of New Orleans was gonna run today
I got to find my baby before she get too far away
Yes, I heard she was somewhere down the line
I heard she was somewhere down the line
If I don't find her, I believe I'll lose my mind
I got a special delivery and I got a telegram today
I got a special delivery and a telegram today
And I got a long distance telephone call
That my baby was on her way
