To do this tune with Mac; |
Bobby Charles |
Great, great, great song writer, Bobby Charles |
He wrote «See Ya Later Alligator» |
Down south in New Orleans, |
The prettiest girls I’ve ever seen. |
Sparkling eyes, lips so sweet, |
we make love to the Rumba beat. |
Ship’s at anchor, my suitcase packed, |
Got a one way ticket, ain’t comin' back. |
Life’s a pleasure, and love’s a dream, |
Down south in New Orleans. |
My dark eyed baby, I’m on my way, |
Back into your arms to stay. |
I’m tired of work, I wanna play. |
I’ll make sweet love to you night and day. |
Down south in New Orleans, |
The prettiest girls I’ve ever seen. |
Sparkling eyes, lips so sweet, |
we make love to the Rumba beat. |
Ship’s at anchor, my suitcase packed, |
I got a one way ticket, ain’t comin' back. |
Life’s a pleasure, love’s a dream, |
Down south in New Orleans. |
I want to get too loose, on Toulose Street, |
I wanna kiss all the Creole girls I see. |
Drink all day, dance all night. |
Do it wrong, 'til I do it right. |
Down south in New Orleans, |
The prettiest girls I’ve ever seen. |
Sparkling eyes, lips so sweet, |
we make love to the Rumba beat. |
Ship’s at anchor, my suitcase packed, |
Got a one way ticket, ain’t comin' back. |
Life’s a pleasure, love’s a dream, |
Down south in New Orleans. |
Mac Rebennack and Bobby Charles. |
