"Way Down Yonder in New Orleans" is a popular song with music by John #TurnerLayton Jr. and lyrics by #HenryCreamer. First published in 1922, it was advertised by Creamer and Layton as "A Southern Song, without A Mammy, A Mule, Or A Moon", a dig at some of the #TinPanAlley clichés of the era. It was performed at The Winter Garden Theater in New York in Act 2 of the Broadway musical production Spice of 1922.

He had girlies on the shore, sweet little peaches by the score. ♪
But Johnnie was a Weisenheimer you know,
His steady girl was Flo and ev’ry Sunday afternoon
She’d jump in his boat and they would spoon.
