"Way Down Yonder in New Orleans" made its debut in 1922, and has been recorded dozens of times since. The lyrics are:
Way down yonder in New Orleans
In the land of dreamy scenes
There’s a garden of Eden
That’s what I mean,
Creole babies with flashing eyes
Softly whisper with tender sighs— Stop!
Oh! won’t you give your lady fair a little smile, Stop!
You bet your life you’ll linger there— a little while
There is heaven right here on earth
With those beautiful queens,
Way down yonder in New Orleans.
This version is for Brass Quartet, and may be played by 2 Trumpets and 2 Trombones, or 2 Trumpets, Horn and Trombone.
