Jim Dixon	Lyr Add: Songs about New Orleans (76* d)	Lyr Add: CHRISTMAS IN NEW ORLEANS (from Armstrong)	09 Feb 14
My transcription from a recording found on Spotify (There are many copies on various Christmas anthology albums.): CHRISTMAS IN NEW ORLEANS Words and music by Dick Sherman and Joe Van Winkle. New York : Regent Music Corporation, ©1955. As sung by Louis Armstrong 1. Magnolia trees at night, Sparklin' bright, Fields of cotton look wintery white, When it's Christmas time in New Orleans. 2. A barefoot choir in prayer Fills the air, Mississippi folks gathering there, 'Cause it's Christmas time in New Orleans. BRIDGE:You'll see a dixieland Santa Claus leadin' the band To a good old creole beat. Golly what a spirit! You can only hear it Down on Basin Street. 3. Your cares will disappear When you hear "Hallelujah! Saint Nicholas is here!" When it's Christmas time in New Orleans. [REPEAT BRIDGE AND 3.]
