She said baby our love's just like your songs The beat ain't bad but the words are all wrong It's time to pack my bags, it's time to just move on She sang johnny, I'm gone, gone, gone And she was gone Me and leigh met summer of '95 In a burgundy dress lookin' finer than a french wine A cajun queen with another side She was a schoolboy's dream, I was out of my mind She was lookin' fine She said "you want to drive me home" But what I didn't know... Ooh, ooh - I was dancing with the Queen of new orleans Ooh, ooh - dancing in the streets of new orleans Ooh, ooh - dancing cheek to cheek in new orleans Ooh, ooh - it was almost like a dream That night I made a move, man I felt hard When I put my hands in her cookie jar She was more than a girl, she was a cabaret star I was a deer in the lights of a speeding car Nothing's what it seems She was a venus de milo in her sister's jeans Ooh, ooh - I was dancing with the Queen of new orleans Ooh, ooh - dancing in the streets of new orleans Ooh, ooh - dancing cheek to cheek in new orleans Ooh, ooh - it was almost like a dream Ooh, ooh - I was dancing with the Queen of new orleans Ooh, ooh - dancing in the streets of new orleans Ooh, ooh - dancing cheek to cheek in new orleans Ooh, ooh - dancing with the queen down bourbon st. Ooh, ooh - I was dancing with the Queen of new orleans Ooh, ooh - dancing in the streets of new orleans Ooh, ooh - dancing cheek to cheek in new orleans Ooh, ooh - dancing with the queen down bourbon st. Ooh, ooh - I was dancing with the queen of new orleans
