Mardi Gras

Damn she hurts the morning after
Drunk on thinking I could have her
Strung me right along like lights on a balcony
Come Wednesday, she don’t care
Tuesday night I had her here
Like beads and feathers, it was heaven her hanging on me
She took me for a ride, hit a new high
Gold confetti in her green eyes
Trying like hell to hold the belle of the ball
She pulled me in her world of wonder
It’s a charade trying to love her
It’s like trying to save a soul from Mardi Gras
From Mardi Gras
Trashed my heart just like these streets
Her perfume’s all over me
Just reminding me of a night I can’t forget
She paraded me around
Swear last night I had a crown on my head till she left
Thought she’d stay, but instead
She took me for a ride, hit a new high
Gold confetti in her green eyes
Trying like hell to hold the belle of the ball
She pulled me in her world of wonder
It’s a charade trying to love her
It’s like trying to save a soul from Mardi Gras
From Mardi Gras
From Mardi Gras
She ain’t looking for love
No she’s just looking for a real good time
And you can’t change her weather
She’s a hurricane every time
She took me for a ride, hit a new high
Gold confetti in her green eyes
Trying like hell to hold the belle of the ball
She pulled me in her world of wonder
It’s a charade trying to love her
It’s like trying to save a soul from Mardi Gras
From Mardi Gras
From Mardi Gras
From Mardi Gras
