#I wanted to send this song in and hopefully somebody will remember it and
#make any corrections that are needed.  This was put out around 1976, by a
#group out of Louisiana, called Le Roux.  Seems like I heard this on
#American Bandstand, but I'm not sure.  It may have just been a regional
#hit.  I don't know the writers name.

The lyrics are:
All . . . the way . . .
From Bourbon Street . . .
To ESPLANADE (NOT WEST whatever they wrote).

An esplanade is a long, open, level area, usually next to a river or large body of water, where people may walk. This allows people to promenade along the sea front, usually for recreational purposes, whatever the state of the tide, without having to walk on the beach. Esplanades became popular in Victorian times when it was fashionable to visit seaside resorts.

The Esplanade in New Orleans is a well-known tourist spot.
Think of "the Beale" in Memphis?
