People say it never snows in New Orleans     
But every night at F&M’s I’m in it to my knees     
A cosmic colored carnival of socialites and sleaze     
It’s snowing every night in New Orleans      

There’s confetti from the ceilings and tickertape parades      
Chicory and melody falling down like rain       
Sunday, Lundi, Mardi Gras, could be Christmas Eve     
It’s snowing every night in New Orleans    

Glistening girls in dresses making angels in the snow      
In the bathroom stall, the bar at Vaughn’s, hell everywhere I go     

People say it never snows in New Orleans     
But every night at Snake and Jake’s it’s flurrying like fleas   
Summer, Winter, Spring or Fall, you can always find the cheese   
It’s snowing every night in New Orleans   

People say it never snows in New Orleans     
But there’s bindles, bullets, straws and mirrors falling from the trees    
Be careful who you kiss cause you might catch a freeze    
It’s snowing every night in New Orleans
