Me got fire, can't put it out Heap fire water gonna make me shout I'm goin' down an-a get my squaw Me might buy a great big car I'm gonna do ev'rything I could Me Big Chief, I'm feeling good Me Big Chief, I got um tribe Got my squaw right by my side My Flagboy, he just went by My Spyboy, he's full of fire Me whole tribe is havin' fun We gonna dance 'til mornin' come
Damn I loved 'Fess. Always makes me cry now, but I love it. Thanks so much 'Fess, Earl King, James Black, the now late Wardell Quezergue, and all the Mardi Gras Indians who keep the traditions going even through these toughest of times..
I have this record, but my label is green. Viva, Professor Longhair and the session drummer, James Black! Not long after Hurricane Katrina hit, I was DJ'ing in Atlanta and played this, along with other New Orleans records. I saw some pretty lively dancing and big smiles. Someone came up to me and said that there were a lot of New Orleans folks there and they greatly appreciated my set.
This song is Mardi Gras at it's finest!!!! Great song for all to listen to. Happy Mardi Gras to everyone visiting our great city and all it's citizens.
he's such an epic whistler! brilliant song

Supposedly one of the most difficult songs to play...saw a rare live performance with the Neville Brothers and Wild Chapatoulas performing this song.
