 I'm walkin' in shadows, I cannot see

Faces, they smile when I fall or flee

Doors without windows all shuttered tight, again

I just might pass this way again

I just might pass this way again

I just might pass this way

I just might pass this way again

 The night she is hot, Creole girls, they sing

 My heart, it is pounding, my ears they ring

 The spell has been cast down in New Orleans, again

I just might pass this way again

I just might pass this way again

I just might pass this way

I just might pass this way again

[Instrumental – melody & chorus]

Locked in a room down in New Orleans

 My blood is a-flowin' fast

Locked in a room down in New Orleans

 My blood is a-flowin' fast

The night she is hot, Creole girls, they sing

 My heart, it is pounding, my ears they ring

 The spell has been cast down in New Orleans, again

I just might pass this way again

I just might pass this way again

I just might pass this way

I just might pass this way again
