"Mardi Gras" and "Iko Iko!"




Some pics from the Mardi Gras weekend here in New Orleans.

My grandma and your grandma
Were sittin' by the fire
My grandma told your grandma

"I'm gonna set your flag on fire"
Talk 'bout, hey now, hey now
Hey now, hey now
Iko iko un-day, hey, hey, hey
Jock-a-mo fee-na ai na-ne, jock-a-mo fee na-ne
Look at my king all dressed in red
Iko, iko, un-day
I betcha five dollars he'll kill you dead
Jock-a-mo fee na-ne
Talk 'bout, hey now, hey now
Hey now, hey now
Iko iko un-day, hey, hey, hey
Jock-a-mo fee-na a na-ne, jock-a-mo fee na-ne
See that man, all dressed in green
Iko, iko, un-day
He is a man, he's a lova machine
Oh jock-a-mo fee na-ne
Talk 'bout, hey now, hey now
Hey now, hey now
Iko iko un-day, hey, hey, hey
Jock-a-mo fee-na a na-ne, jock-a-mo fee na-ne
My flag boy and your flag boy
Sittin' by the fire
Your flag boy and my flag boy
We're gonna set their flags on fire
Talk 'bout, hey now, hey now
Hey now, hey now
Iko iko un-day, hey, hey, hey
Jock-a-mo fee-na a na-ne, jock-a-mo fee na-ne
Talk 'bout, hey now
Talk 'bout, hey now, hey now
Iko iko un-day
