The Starlite Singers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Hey sister, go sister, soul sister, go sister
He met marmalade down in old new orleans
Struttin' her stuff on the street
She said "hello,
Hey joe, you wanna give it a go?" mmm, mmm
Itchi gitchi ya ya here
Mocha-choca-lata ya ya
Creole lady marmalade
Voulez-vous coucher avec moi ce soir?
Voulez-vous coucher avec moi?
He sat in her boudoir while she freshened up
The boy drank all her magnolia-wine
On the black satin sheets oh I swear he started to freak
Itchi gitchi ya ya da da
Itchi gitchi ya ya here
Mocha-choca-lata ya ya
Creole lady marmalade
Voulez-vous coucher avec moi ce soir?
Voulez-vous coucher avec moi?
Hey, hey, hey
Touching her skin feelin' silky smooth
The colour of cafe au lait
Made the savage beast inside
Roar until it cried, more, more, more
Now he's back home doing nine to five
Living his grey flannel life
But when he turns off to sleep
Old memories creep, more, more, more
Itchi gitchi ya ya da da da
Itchi gitchi ya ya here
Mocha-choco-lata ya ya
Creole lady marmalade
Voulez-vous coucher avec moi ce soir?
Voulez-vous coucher avec moi?
Voulez-vous couchez avec moi ce soir?
Creole lady marmalade
Voulez-vous coucher avec moi ce soir?
Voulez-vous coucher avec moi?
Voulez-vous couchez avec moi ce soir?
Voulez-vous coucher avec moi?
Voulez-vous couchez avec moi ce soir?
Voulez-vous coucher avec moi?
Voulez-vous couchez avec moi ce soir?
Voulez-vous coucher avec moi?

The song "Lady Marmalade" by The Starlite Singers is a tribute to New Orleans and to the Creole women who are known for their exotic beauty and their unique culture. The lyrics of the song tell the story of a man who fell in love with a Creole lady named Marmalade. He met her on the streets of New Orleans and was immediately captivated by her charm and beauty. Marmalade invited him to her boudoir and he drank her magnolia-wine as they lay on black satin sheets. The lyrics are sensual and suggestive, with lyrics such as "Hey, hey, hey, touching her skin feeling silky smooth" and "the savage beast inside roared until it cried, more, more, more." The chorus is in French, with the phrase "voulez-vous coucher avec moi ce soir" (which means "would you like to sleep with me tonight?"). The chorus brings the song to a climax, with Marmalade asking the man if he wants to spend the night with her.
