Take Me To The Mardi Gras |
| C’mon take me to the Mardi Gras |
| Where the people sing and play |
| Where the dancing is elite |
| And there’s music in the street |
| Both night and day |
| Hurry take me to the Mardi Gras |
| In the city of my dreams |
| You can legalize your lows |
| You can wear your summer clothes |
| In the New Orleans |
| And I will lay my burden down |
| Rest my head upon that shore |
| And when I wear that starry crown |
| I won’t be wanting anymore |
| Take your burdens to the Mardi Gras |
| Let the music wash your soul |
| You can mingle in the street |
| You can jingle to the beat of Jelly Roll |
| Tumba, tumba, tumba, Mardi Gras |
| Tumba, tumba, tumba, day |
