Lyrics Mardi Gras Mambo - The Meters

Down in New Orleans, where the blues was born
It takes a cool cat to blow a horn
On Lasalle and Rampart Street
The combo's play with a mambo beat

Mardi Gras mambo, mambo, mambo
Mardi Gras mambo, mambo, mambo
Mardi Gras mambo
Down in New Orleans

In Gert Town where the cats all meet
There's a Mardi Gras mambo with a beat
They shout and cheer for the Zulu King
Truck on down where the mambo swing

Mardi Gras mambo, mambo, mambo
Mardi Gras mambo, mambo, mambo
Mardi Gras mambo
Down in New Orleans

Down in New Orleans where the blues was born
It takes a cool cat to blow a horn
On Lasalle and Rampart Street
Combo's playin' with a mambo beat

Mardi Gras mambo, mambo, mambo
Mardi Gras mambo, mambo, mambo
Mardi Gras mambo
Down in New Orleans

Mardi Gras mambo, mambo, mambo
Mardi Gras mambo, mambo, mambo
Mardi Gras mambo, mambo, mambo
Mardi Gras mambo, mambo, mambo

Mardi Gras mambo, mambo, mambo
Mardi Gras mambo, mambo, mambo
Mardi Gras mambo, mambo, mambo
Mardi Gras
