Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends

There's not much to say, so how about another quiz ?

Phil and I are gonna be away til Sunday night so you've all got a few hours to ponder. It's a song lyrics quiz , each extract carries two points, one for the song, one for the artist/band.
Some of the songs have been covered, I'm looking for the original artists (hope I've got these right, if not don't argue, we all make mistakes, OK ?)

The last one has a bonus question, so is worth three points. Here we go :

1. Deep down in Louisiana close to New Orleans,
Way back up in the woods among the evergreens...
There stood a log cabin made of earth and wood,

2. You packed your bags
As I recall
And you walked slowly
Down the hall

3. Let me tell you 'bout a place
Somewhere up-a New York way
Where the people are so gay

4. When I'm tired and thinking cold
I hide in my music, forget the day
And dream of a girl I used to know
I closed my eyes and she slipped away

5. I tried to give you consolation
When your old man had let you down.
Like a fool, I fell in love with you,
Turned my whole world upside down.

Last one :
6. But Terry and Julie cross over the river
Where they feel safe and sound
And they don't need no friends

Bonus question : Who do Terry and Julie refer to ?

Good luck, hope it's fun. Post your answers via comments or email, don't mind.

Answers on Sunday/Monday, keep a look out.
