Take Me to the Mardi Gras Lyrics
C'mon take me to the Mardi Gras
[Verse 1]
Where the people sing and play
Where the dancing is elite
And there's music in the street
Both night and day
Hurry take me to the Mardi Gras
[Verse 2]
In the city of my dreams
You can legalize your lows
You can wear your summer clothes
In the New Orleans
And I will lay my burden down
Rest my head upon that shore
And when I wear that starry crown
I won't be wanting anymore
Take your burdens to the Mardi Gras
[Verse 3]
Let the music wash your soul
You can mingle in the street
You can jingle to the beat
Of Jelly Roll
