Creola

 

Creola Lyrics

By: Jimmy Buffett, Ralph MacDonald, William Salter
Chorus:
Creola
In my sola
I loved what they were sayin`
I loved what they were playin`
Creola

Creola
On my victrola
Makes me feel like dancin`
Fall in love romancin` the melody
Creola, Creola, Creola for me

I remember as a child all the happiness and smiles
Flowed around my grandma`s Sunday table
While Auntie Mae was sayin` grace
Papa T would sneak a taste
Catch a funny look from my cousin Mabel

Then daddy`d beat the drum
The old folks start to hum
Sing the only song that we all knew
Ambiance so fine, dancin` drinkin` wine
Sing about the lifestyle on the bayou

Chorus:
Creola (creola)
In my sola (sola)
Loved what they were sayin` (sayin`)
Loved what they were playin` (playin`)
Creola

Creola (creola)
On my Victrola (Victrola)
Makes me feel like dancin` (dancin`)
Fall in love romancin` the melody
(Do do do do, do do do do)
Creola, Creola (Creola), Creola for me

It`s in the mood, it`s in the blood
It`s in the food, it`s in the mud
It`s a spicy kind of life
Creola

It`s in the mood, it`s in the blood
It`s in the food, it`s in the mud
Creola, Creola, Creola for me

(pan instrumental)

The years have come and gone
Still the old song lingers on
I keep it in my heart with fond affection
Like the family good luck charm
That keeps away the harm
Creola`s always there for my protection

Chorus:
Creola (Creola)
Good for your sola (sola)
Loved what they were sayin` (sayin`)
Loved what they were playin` (playin`)
Creola

Creola (Creola)
On my Victrola (Victrola)
Makes me feel like dancin` (dancin`)
Fall in love romancin` the melody
(Do do do do, do do do do)
Creola, Creola (Creola), Creola for me

It`s in the mood, it`s in the blood
It`s in the food, it`s in the mud
It`s a spicy kind of life
Creola

Just repeat the words I say
About a thousand times a day
Creola, Creola

It`s in the mood, it`s in the blood
It`s in the food, it`s in the mud
It`s a spicy kind of life
Creola

Just forget about the mumbo jumbo
Hello to the world of gumbo
Creola, Creola

It`s in the mood, it`s in the blood
It`s in the food, it`s in the mud
It`s a spicy kind of life
Creola

It`s in the mood, it`s in the blood
It`s in the food, it`s in the mud
Creola, Creola
