Malk - thanks for mentioning Dire Straits' track. They really don't get enough credit IMO. It's a great one, off the 1991 On Every Street (which is a great album, as was all of DS's material) for those that don't know.
Another with New Orleans...of course...
Led Zeppelin - Royal Orleans
One time love, take care how you use it
Try to make it last all night
And if you take your pick, be careful how you choose it
Sometimes it's hard to feel it bite
Feel it bite
A man I know, went down to Louisiana
Had himself a bad, bad fight
And when the sun peeked through
John Cameron with Suzanna
He kissed the whiskers left and right
Whiskerrrrs
Now now now, fright subsides
Out at a hotel in The Quarter, our friends checked in to pass the night
Now love gets hot, but fire preceded water
Poor whiskers set that room alight
Whiskerrrrs
Down on Bourbon Street, you know it's right
You can see my friend and they run around all through the night
Most everywhere, 'til the closet's bare
Run for the razor, bud, doin' up my hair
New Orleans queens, sure know how to schmooze it
Maybe for some that seems alright
When I step out, strut down with my sugar
She best not talk like Barry White
Now one time love, take care how you use it
Try to make it last all night
And if you take your pick, be careful how you choose it
Sometimes it's hard to feeeeel it bite
