(Holland)



Give me iko

I wanna ball the wall here

Shuffle in Dumaine

Hear the hookacumbi

Meet my tipatina

Love her hold her tightly

Wanna see her swaying

In New Orleans nightly

You know I wanna be there

Drinking in the morning

Holler in the evening

Dr. Jazz Dr. Jazz

Bake my jelly roll

You quicken my pulse

You make my rhythm slow

Crawfish gumbo

Rhythm from the jungle

Big chief rocking

I follow the voodoo king

Oolamalawaladollar

That's what the fez he sing



How long must it be

How long must I wait

Till Highway 49 takes me to your gate

I eat a bowl of gumbo

That creole child will serve

Sit on the verandah

Happy in a dixie world



Maybe on Sunday

Head for Baton Rouge

Dancing with the cajun

Twist away my blues

Then a drop of rain

A trickle in my eye

I look up and smile

At the rhythm that never, never dies
