Mardi Gras

Dear Voodoolawyer:
You oughta get outta that swamp more often...this is what we saw in the French Quarter just yesterday...Yours, Claymore


Dear Clay:
Look for me at St. Claude and Dumaine...If you see King Creole, I hear he's jumpin' like a catfish on a pole...

Crawfish
(Weis / Weisman)

Crawfish (Crawfish)
Well I went to the bayou just last night
There wasn't no moon but the stars were bright
Put a big long hook on a big long pole
And I pulled Mr Crawfish outa his hole
Crawfish (Crawfish)

* See I got em, see the size
Stripped and cleaned before your eyes
Sweet meat, look, fresh and ready to cook
Crawfish (Crawfish)

Now take Mr Crawfish in your han'
He's gonna look good in your frying pan
If you fry him crisp or you boil him right
He'll be sweeter than sugar with ev'ry bite
Crawfish (Crawfish)
