Lyrics
We've been simmerin' all day Like a pot of rice and beans Now it's comin' along, gotta season an' salt With the flavor of New Orleans

And let you whip up a little zydeco And roll in all that jazz Infuse with the blues and here we go This party's got the flavor

Come on and pull up a seat at the table It won't be too long now We been cookin' up this rhythm And stirrin' up the south

We're gonna taste that good ol' snare drum And crack it nice and loud Gonna bring it to a boil and keep on dishin' If you can't take the beat, get out of the kitchen

Yeah, you got it, baby Mama gon' feed you now Watch out

I was servin' up this feast And there's plenty here for you Trust the spoon, you're gonna love this tune And here's what you need to do

Come on and pull up a seat at the table It won't be too long now We been cookin' up this rhythm, ooh yeah And stirrin' up the south

Whoa, we're gonna taste that good ol' snare drum And crack it nice and loud Gonna bring it to a boil and keep on dishin' If you can't take the beat, get out of the kitchen

Uh, hear those drumsticks That's it, baby, that's it Play down that bouilla-bass And salt and pepper add it

Right there, right there Whoa, that sounds so good Good taste with everything

Oh, come on and pull up a seat at the table It won't be too long now We been cookin' up this rhythm, oh yeah And stirrin' up the south

We're gonna single out the cymbal And the rushin', spinnin' round We're gonna bring it to a boil and keep on dishin' If you can't take the beat, get out of the kitchen

Go, get out of the kitchen I said, go, get out of the kitchen 'Cause I'm makin' me some gumbo
