Take Her to the Mardi Gras Harry Connick, Jr.

[Verse 1]
Why you
Goin' to the bayou
She don't wanna be by you
If you gonna waste the day
Give her
The Mississippi River
The Mississippi River
And the voodoo in the Vieux Carré

[Verse 2]
She'll fret
Walkin' on the banquette
Oh, walkin' on the banquette
Is too refined for her
Her feet
Need to meet Canal Street
And only on Canal Street
Will she wanna dance

[Bridge]
She's always been partial
To a great grand marshall
She'll sing a cappella
To dance with the man with that fine umbrella
