Backstory:

NOLA is a place people love to visit year-round because there is always music in the air. It is especially magical at Christmastime. This Nashville Country song was co-written by William Sherry and Clare Steffen and was performed by Sandi Kight. (I also have a piano--Billy Joel-style version of the song, co-written with Anthony Prezio).

Lyrics:

                                                  
V1

Bourbon Street is wrapped up in a bow

It’s the time of year, everything’s aglow

Jazz sounds are still floating in the air

But they have a Christmas vibe and cheer



V2

Trains are coming in from everywhere

People like to spend their holiday here’

Cause it’s a special place, this time of year

Celebration is in the atmosphere



Chorus

Our parishes are strong

Our people have survived

It’s called The Big Easy

All of us down here know

How to appreciate life

And do Christmas NOLA-style

We’re a melting pot of cultures

Mardi Gras is always near

Come and do Christmas NOLA-style this year



V3T

he Mississippi will call 

It stretches far and wide

The Gulf will warm you

Open arms invite you to do

Christmas NOLA style



Chorus

Our parishes are strong

Our people have survived

It’s called The Big Easy

All of us down here know

How to appreciate life

And do Christmas NOLA-style

We’re a melting pot of cultures

Mardi Gras is always near

Come and do Christmas NOLA-style this year
