Party Gras (The Mardi Gras Song)

Who that going to the Mardi Gras
It's like nothing that you ever saw
It's just as big as party Gra
Honky tonkin' Halloween

So bring a fiddle and an old guitar
A little Louisiana caviar
And somthin' for the mason jar
And head to New Orleans

You know you best be getting out of the way
When the sailors say "bouton les"
Means there's gonna be a big parade
Up an down the street
They'll be cooking up that étouffée
Jambalaya and sweet beignets
Ça c'est bon's the way the Cajun's say
Oh Bon Appetit

Who that going to the Mardi Gras
It's like nothing that you ever saw
It's just as big as party Gra
Honky tonkin' Halloween

So bring a fiddle and an old guitar
A little Louisiana caviar
Somthin' for the mason jar
And head to New Orleans, eyee

In the bayou with Marie Laveau
Little voodoo and zydeco
Makes you jumpin' and holler hidey coo
Oh you know I guarantee

From the quarter to the punch train
Things are gonna get a bit insane
Since they've never made a pair the same
Best to bring a lot of beads

Who that going to the Mardi Gras
It's like nothing that you ever saw
It's just as big as party Gra
Honky tonkin' Halloween

So bring a fiddle and an old guitar
A little Louisiana caviar
Somthin' for the mason jar
And head to New Orleans

Veterans, beginners, losers and winners
Callin' all sinners and saints
Jump in the gumbo
You can have fun though
No matter what you are you ain't

Get down to the Mardi Gras
It's like nothing that you ever saw
It's just as big as party Gra
Honky tonkin' Halloween

So bring that fiddle and an old guitar
A little Louisiana caviar
Somthin' for the mason jar
And head to New Orleans

Lid up a couple mason jars
And head to New Orleans
