Everybody running to the carnaval, I say

everybody running to the spree on carnaval day

old and the young, the great and the small

everybody running to the carnaval

everybody running to the carnaval I say



One shirt Willie and he mother in law May May

see them pushing throu the crowd on carnaval day

nothin´ to eat and nothin´ to wear

but the carnaval... they are bound to be there.

everybody running to the carnaval I say



Twist eyed Mary Ann she was in love with a policeman

she made to understand she wanted to take a calypsonian

Everybody running to the carnaval I say.
