NOLA song that wasn't sad at the time

[liberaltrucker]

In the heart of the night
In the cool southern rain
There’s a full moon in sight
Shinin’ down on Lake Pontchartrain
And the river she rises
Just like she used to do
She’s so full of surprises
She reminds me of you

In the heart of the night
In the heart of the ni-ey-ight
In the heart on the night
WoWo, down in New Orleans

There’s a nightbird singing
Right on through till the dawn
And the streets are still ringing
With people carrying on
It’s been so long waiting
Just to be here again
Anticipating
All the time I can spend

In the heart of the night
In the heart of the ni-ey-ight
In the heart of the night
Wo-WO-wo, Down in New Orleans
