Everybody running to the carnival I say, believe me
Everybody running to the street on carnival day
Old and the young the great and the small
Everybody running to the carnival,
Everybody running to the carnival I say (bis)
Down one shirt Willy and his mother in law May May, believe me
See them pushing through the crowd
On carnival day
Nothing to eat and nothing to wear
But the carnival they are bound to be there
Everybody running to the carnival I say (bis)
Twist eyed Mary Anne, She was in love with a policeman
They made me to understand, She’s running to take a calypsonian, I said her
Everybody running to the carnival I say, believe me
Everybody running to the street on carnival day
Old and the young the great and the small
Everybody running to the carnival I say (bis)
Down one shirt Willy and his mother in law May May, believe me
See them pushing through the crowd
On carnival day
Nothing to eat and nothing to wear
But the carnival they are bound to be there
Everybody running to the carnival I say (bis)
Twist eyed Mary Anne
She was in love with a policeman
They made me to understand
She’s running to take a calypsonian, I said her
Everybody running to the carnival I say
Everybody running to the street on carnival day
Old and the young the great and the small
Everybody running to the carnival,
Everybody running to the carnival I say (bis)
