Party Time In Louisiana

Bienvenue en Louisianne, ma bonne cher! You're here for the Strawberry Festival Fair? Well c'mon! Drop your stuff and pull up a chair Bring all your buddies and see if we care It's party time in Ponchy, Lou-isianne Three hundred thousand packed in one tiny town Come in shorts, a bikini or just a nightgown We ain't gonna' care, no we ain't gonna' frown So don't you dress up now, ya'll come right on down! It's party time in Ponchy, Lou-isianne Food everywhere that you sure won't refuse (If you got the money, there's plenty of booze) Lotsa' good music that will knock off your shoes Cajun and country, rock & roll and da' blues It's party time in Ponchy, Lou-isianne So come on now, Sha! What the heck you wait for? Don't make me DRAG you out on to that floor! We'll dance away the night we'll party til four Jump up the next morning and dive in for more It's party time in Ponchy, Lou-isianne Ponchatoula, LA USA
