Lady Marmalade
Christina Aguilera Lil'Kim Mya And Pink Lyrics

Where's all my soul sistas?
Asking where all the women who love soul music are

Lemme hear ya'll flow, sistas
Wanting to hear some good soulful singing from fellow women

Hey sista, go sista, soul sista, flow sista
Encouraging women to embrace their soulful identity and showcase their singing talents

He met Marmalade down in old Moulin Rouge Struttin' her stuff on the street She said, "Hello, hey Joe! You wanna give it a go?"
Joe met Marmalade in the Moulin Rouge while she was dancing and she asked him if he wanted to have some fun

Gitchie, gitchie, ya-ya, da-da (hey, hey, hey) Gitchie, gitchie, ya-ya, here (here) Mocha Chocolata, ya-ya (ooh, yeah) Creole Lady Marmalade (What-what, what-what) Ooh, oh
Various gibberish expressions combined with Marmalade's identity as a Creole lady

Voulez-vous coucher avec moi, ce soir? Voulez-vous coucher avec moi? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Asking if Joe wants to sleep with her tonight, in French

He sat in her boudoir while she freshened up Boy drank all that Magnolia wine On her black satin sheets' where he started to freak, yeah
Joe sat in Marmalade's room while she got ready and drank lots of wine. He then had sex with her on her black satin sheets

Yeah, yeah, uh We come through with the money and the garter belts Let him know we 'bout that cake straight out the gate (uh) We independent women, some mistake us for whores I'm sayin', "Why spend mine when I can spend yours?" Disagree? Well, that's you, and I'm sorry I'ma keep playing these cats out like Atari Wear high heel shoes, get love from the dudes Four badass chicks from the Moulin Rouge Hey sistas, soul sistas, betta get that dough, sistas We drink wine with diamonds in the glass By the case, the meaning of expensive taste If you wanna gitchie, gitchie, ya-ya Mocha Chocolata (what) Creole Lady Marmalade One more time, c'mon now
Proudly declaring their independence and love for money and luxury, and how they enjoy wearing high heels and getting attention from men. Encouraging women to earn money and sip fancy wine, referencing their identity as strong women from Moulin Rouge who can do whatever they want

Marmalade (ooh, oh) Lady Marmalade (ooh, yeah, yeah) Marmalade (no, oh, yeah)
Reiterated Marmalade's identity as a Creole lady at the Moulin Rouge while using her name in salacious ways

Hey, hey, hey! Touch of her skin, feeling silky smooth Color of café au lait, alright Made the savage beast inside roar until he cried More (more), more (more), more Now he's back home doin' 9 to 5 (9 to 5) He's livin' the grey flannel life But when he turns off to sleep, memories creep More (more), more (more), more
Describing Joe's intense attraction to Marmalade and how even after returning to his monotonous everyday life, he still yearns for more

Gitchie, gitchie, ya-ya, da-da (da-da, yeah) Gitchie, gitchie, ya-ya, here (ooh) Mocha Chocolata, ya-ya (yeah) Creole Lady Marmalade Voulez-vous coucher avec moi, ce soir? (ce soir, ce soir) Voulez vous coucher avec moi? (all my sistas, yeah) Voulez-vous coucher avec moi, ce soir? (ce soir, ce soir) Voulez vous coucher avec moi (c'mon! Uh)
Repeating earlier lines that describe Marmalade's Creole identity and flirtatious invites to have sex in French

Christina (hey, oh) P!nk (Lady Marmalade) Lil' Kim (hey, hey, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh) Mya (oh, oh, ooh) Rockwilder, baby (baby) Moulin Rouge (oh) Misdemeanor here Creole Lady Marmalade Ooh, ooh, yes-ah
