Lady Marmalade by The Eleventh Hour Lyrics

Genre: rb | Year: 1974

[Verse 1]
Met Marmalade down in Old New Orleans
Strutting her stuff on the street
She said, "Hello, hey Joe
You wanna give it a go?"

[Chorus]
Gitchi gitchi ya ya da da
Gitchi gitchi ya ya here
Mocha chocolata, ya ya
Creole Lady Marmalade

[Bridge]
She said
She said
Voulez-vous coucher avec moi ce soir?
Voulez-vous coucher avec moi?

[Verse 2]
I sat in her boudoir
While she freshened up
And I drank that Magnolia wine
Upon her black satin sheets
I sweated and started to freak
When she said
[Chorus]
Gitchi gitchi ya ya da da
Gitchi gitchi ya ya here
Mocha chocolata, ya ya
[?] souvernir

[Bridge]
She said
She said
Voulez-vous coucher avec moi ce soir?
Voulez-vous coucher avec moi?

[Verse 3]
Touching her skin
Feeling silky smooth
Color of café au lait
Made the savage beast inside
Roaring 'til it cried
More, more, more, yo ya ya

Now I'm at home doing old 9 to 5
Living my brave sack [set?] of lies
But when I turn off to sleep
I get the memories that keep on calling

[Chorus]
Gitchi gitchi ya ya da da da
Gitchi gitchi ya ya here
Mocha chocolata, ya ya
Creole Lady Marmalade
[Bridge]
She said
She said
Voulez-vous coucher avec moi ce soir?
Voulez-vous coucher avec moi?

[Outro]
The woman said
Ooooh
Ooooh
Aaaaah
Aaah

Gotta get back to New Orleans
Gotta get back to my Marmalade scene
Gotta get back to New Orleans
Gotta get back to my Marmalade scene

Ooh, I wanna get back to my Marmalade, baby
'Cause I really like my Marmalade

My, my Marmalade
My, my Marmalade
My, my Marmalade
My, my Marmalade
My, my Marmalade
