Our City
New Orleans
French Quarter, streetcars, Mardi Gras, and snowballs,
The people of New Orleans seem to really have it all,
Beignets, the Saints, The Mississippi, and more,
Visitors and tourists don’t even know what’s in store,
Jazz Fest, Gumbo, and music from the soul
New Orleanians love their city, true and whole
Nothing will stop us, we are proud to swim home,
Not even with water surrounding the Dome,
There are many different meanings of the Who Dat Nation, or NOLA, too
What does New Orleans mean to you?
