Harry Connick, Jr. - Light The Way Lyrics

Light the way, light the way, light the way
Light the way the people say
We are made the parade for today
Oh Mister Flambeau light the way

Do that fine second line to the beat
We are dancing in the street
Make night the day
Mr. Flambeau light the way

Now the wheels of the floats are turnin'
Oil in the lamps are burnin'
Nickels and dimes are fallin' to the ground
The band on the street is a beat down
The cops on the beat put the beat down
Everybody's moving to the sound

Light the way, light the way, light the way
Beignets cafe ole
Watch 'em go jackamo felines lay
Mr. Flambeau light the way
Mr. Flambeau light the way

"You can't have a good parade
Without a great drummer
This is what I call a New Orleans sweet beat
You got it Art"
"That's Art."

Light the way, light the way, light the way
You can try some of my etoufee
Watch 'em go jackamo felines lay
Mr. Flambeau light the way

Now the wheels of the floats are turnin'
Oil in the lamps are burnin'
Nickels and dimes are fallin' to the ground
The band on the street is a beat down
The cops on the beat put the beat down
Everybody's moving to the sound

Light the way, light the way, light the way
Beignets cafe ole
Watch 'em go jackamo felines lay
Mr. Flambeau light the way
Mr. Flambeau light the way
