Lyrics
It's time for you and me to shake the winter blues
If you don't know my now it's time I spread the news
When Fat Tuesday rolls around...it's time to head downtown
Fun is the rule of law...Down at the Mardi Gras
They'll be dancing in the streets
St Louie to New Orleans
We watch the folks creep and crawl
Down at the Mardi Gras
There's a smile on every face
Good vibes going every place
We're gonna have a ball
Down at the Mardi Gras
The city throws a party we're all invited to
Come along with me I'll show you what to do
You can join the party...You can party hardy
You feel je ne sais quoi...Down at the Mardi Gras
They'll be dancing in the streets
St Louie to New Orleans
We watch the folks creep and crawl
Down at the Mardi Gras
There's a smile on every face
Good vibes going every place
We're gonna have a ball
Down at the Mardi Gras
