I don't wanna know
Who he's seeing now
Or how he's getting by
I might start to cry
And I might never stop

I don't wanna go
To New Orleans no more
I am so afraid
I might see his face
And that I couldn't take

Please don't say a word
Of what you might have heard
Don't even say his name
'Cause I don't wanna hear
It might bring a tear
And I don't need the pain

So, please don't make me go
To New Orleans no more
I am so afraid
I might see his face
And that I couldn't take

Please don't say a word
What you might have heard
Not even say his name
'Cause I don't wanna hear
It might bring a tear
And I don't need the pain

So, please don't make me go
To New Orleans no more
I am so afraid
I might see his face
And that I couldn't take
