Standard (EADGBE)
It's time I'm walking to New Orleans,
I'm walking to New Orleans
I'm going to need two pair of shoes,
when I get through walking these blues
When I get back to New Orleans
I've got my suitcase in my hand,
now ain't that a shame
I'm leaving here today,
Yes, I'm going back home to stay
Yes, I'm walking to New Orleans
You used to be my honey,
till you spent all my money
No use for you to cry,
I'll see you bye and bye,
cause I'm walking to New Orleans
I've got no time for talking,
I've got to keep on walking
New Orleans is my home,
that's the reason why I'm going
Yes, I'm walking to New Orleans
I'm walking to New Orleans 3x
