CHORUS: Let the good times roll, Bad times gone The suns gonna shine Rise up, get on your feet Let the good times roll Sad times gone Let the good times roll Pretty mama can't stop Magnolia's soul Justin: Dear magnolia, what's crackin'? Been a long time since I last saw your face Never forget the day out in the sticks I saw your crecsent smile in place All the way from uptown, downtown, lakeside to river Heard W don't care about them Gotta watch who you make ya friend Otherwise FEMA will come through and backstab you again Just some advice to lend Weak ties will bend Through the dark true light will win And they said that this the end But we fixin' to make them saints march on again CHORUS Jabu: Polite little hurricane, called for she came Officials knew the deal and they didn't do a thang
Knew her every move Yep Katrina was her name The mayor had the whole game in the palm of his hand Hand in the pot Caught cold and oh!/ shouldv'e fixed them damn levees long time ago/ but they didn't take the chance to do it Pitty pat between the pres and the mayor Folks was dying (die) too A gang of us in the superdome We're in the heat Folks in wheelchairs feet swole, nothing to eat So to the kids and the families that lost I rhyme for, ‘nolia clap Show the world your sooooooul CHORUS Bridge: Everybody clap them hands Still steppin to the second line band Still stompin' to the zulu drum You can't stop this native son A huh huh Let the good times roll Let the good times roll pretty mama can't stop magnolias soul CHORUS
