Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Tipitina, tra-la-la-la
Tipitina, uh, uh, tra-la-la-la
Tipitina, oola-malla-golla wants a dollar
'Tina, now
[Instrumental]
Hey Roberta, oh Roberta
Can you hear me callin' you?
You are three times seven, baby
And you know what you want to do
[Instrumental]
Hey now, boy, we going down, oh, look out 'low
And we sure gon' have a time
We gonna tralla-hoola-malla-walla
With a belly full of wine
Written by: Comiso Matassa, Roy Byrd
