Now we will read the lyrics of Eh, là-bas in Louisiana Creole and in English. Hey you there! Eh toi! It’s Carnival time!

Toi, you must also read in English and French the lyrics of the Mardi Gras Song of Petit Mamou, out on the prairie.

You should see this video of the Faquetigue Mardi Gras run, which will give you an idea of what one country Mardi Gras is like.

Finally, for a more general view on country Mardi Gras here is a clip from Pat Mire’s 1993 documentary Dance for a Chicken, which you can stream in its entirety from Folkstreams.

Come see, cher!

Axé.
