Off the top of my head (there are millions):

City of New Orleans - Arlo Guthrie (Steve Goodman wrote it)
Baton Rouge - The Nixons
Queen of New Orleans - Bon Jovi
Orange Blossom Special - Johnny Cash
Battle of New Orleans - Johnny Horton
Give My Love to Rose - Johnny Cash
Miami - Counting Crows
Born on the Bayou - Creedence Clearwater Revival
Cotton Fields - Creedence, again

...and just about every Delta blues song ever written.

All that comes to mind is Lady Marmalade, but that's not the most positive reference you could find ;)

Louisiana 1927 - Randy Newman
(they used to play the bejeezus out of that at the oldies station I worked for years ago)

my favorite...
