Wishing, hoping
How can I keep coping
'Til I know your wish is to be with me
You go, I know
You were the one who told me so
I'm wishing you lying in my arms
Sad, so sad
It's written across my face
My tears leave no trace
They fall and disappear
Mad, so mad
Leaving you on your own
Your right to disown me
Will always be so clear
Wishing, so long
How can I keep holding on
When this song is wishing you home again
Sad, so sad
It's written across my face
My tears leave no trace
They fall and disappear
Mad, so mad
Leaving you on your own
Your right to disown me
Will always be so clear
Wishing
Wishing
Wishing
Wishing, so long
How can I keep holding on
When this song is wishing you home again
Wishing
Wishing
WishingOut on Dixie highway
Rolling down the road
Going to New Orleans where I can loosen my load
There I'm gonna find me my Shangri-La
Find it at the Mardi Gras
Yeah, yeah everything will be just yeah
Yeah, yeah as soon as I get there
Hey Ma, Ma. Hey Ma, Ma. Everybody Ska at the Mardi Gras
Hey Ma, Ma. Hey Ma, Ma. Everybody Ska at the Mardi Gras
All the foxy Dixie chicks down on Bourbon street
Are jumping up and down to the upbeat beat
Hey there Creole lady on the balcony
Give some Cajun loving to me
Yeah, yeah you can hear me loud and clear
Yeah, yeah now that I am here
Hey Ma, Ma. Hey Ma, Ma. Everybody Ska at the Mardi Gras
Hey Ma, Ma. Hey Ma, Ma. Everybody Ska at the Mardi Gras
Yeah, yeah we are going all the way
Yeah, yeah ska on fat Tuesday
Hey Ma, Ma. Hey Ma, Ma. Everybody Ska at the Mardi Gras
Hey Ma, Ma. Hey Ma, Ma. Everybody Ska at the Mardi Gras
Hey Ma, Ma. Hey Ma, Ma. Find my Shangri-La at the Mardi Gras
Hey Ma, Ma. Hey Ma, Ma. Getting down and dirty at the Mardi Gras
