Lyrics

?Mardi Gras Shag?

When you get down, to that easy town,
You?ll wonna do, the MARDI GRAS SHAG.

Now, the MARDI GRAS SHAG is a shag-a-rue.
The MARDI GRAS SHAG is a dance they do.
You?ll see the Zulu Floozy and a hep Watuzie,
All in the MARDI GRAS SHAG.

You?ll want to leave your rut,
To sing and dance and strut.
A rockin? to,
The MARDI GRAS SHAG-a-rue.

Yea, the MARDI GRAS SHAG is a sight to see.
The MARDI GRAS SHAG is an awesome spree.
You see the flambeau Suzy and the popcorn boozy,
All in the MARDI GRAS SHAG.

Whether it?s rain or sun,
You gonna have some fun,
Oh, A rockin? to,
The MARDI GRAS SHAG-a-rue.

A rockin? to,
The MARDI GRAS SHAG-a-rue.

Oh! A rockin? to,
The MARDI GRAS SHAG-a-rue.
