	Story Behind the Song The lyrics describe the motivation: after hearing Queen Ida on the radio I determined to see her live next time she came to town. when I did, I danced for the first time in about 8 years, then went backstage and made friends. Since then Filé Gumbo has opened a couple show for the Queen, and marc Bristol has sat in with both her and her son Freeze on scrubboard. Lyrics Calypso Zydeco © Marc Bristol BMI Once was a time that I did not dance It lasted for eight long years This was the disco seventies We hiding in the mountains, shedding out tears But then one night on the radio I heard Queen Ida play the zydeco I said to myself man you got to go Kick up your heels on that old dance floor Calypso zydeco Get yourself out on that old dance floor Get down and boogie, let yourself go Calypso zydeco One day I read in the newspaper Is coming to my town a zydeco band That was the day that I jumped for joy Whoopin’ hollerin’ and clappin’ my hands Down to the big town I did go There they was having a fais do do I got down and boogie’d to the zydeco Man it was a flat out wonderful show Calypso zydeco Get yourself out on that old dance floor Get down and boogie, let yourself go Calypso zydeco Medicine is something to make you feel good And music the kind that I choose The way it works best is to go all the way Get out on the dance floor and make you some moves You want to feel better then you should go Down to the town to the fais do do Get down and boogie to the zydeco You ain’t gonna feel too bad no more Calypso zydeco Get yourself out on that old dance floor Get down and boogie, let yourself go Calypso zydeco
