Google is my friend. The Orlons recorded South Street.
What with the hurricane in New Orleans, I'm thinking of this song:
Louisiana 1927 by Randy Newman

The chorus "Six feet of water in the streets of Evangeline" I have also heard this recorded as "Six feet of water in the streets of Plaquemines"
Evangeline, as well as being a poem, is a parish in Louisiana, as is Plaquemines.
