"Big Chief" by Professor Longhair
"Honk honk honk honkhonk bammmbambambam honk honk honk honkhonk."

"Second Line:"
"Badun duuuuuuun dun! Zoink! Badun duuuuuuun dun! Zoink! Dun dun dun, dun dundun du dun.  Dun dun dun, dun dundun du dunnunu, Dun dun dun, dun dunnunna, dundundu dundundun, dundundundun dun dun dun, dundun du DUN!  Badun dun. dun. dundun. dun dun dun dun. dun dun."

"They all asked for you" by Rockin' Dopsie, Jr.:
"Womp womp wawanamawompwomp womp womp banananannawompwomp."

Knowing these few popular songs will enrich your Mardi Gras experience.  All the locals know these songs.  People will say, "Oh you must be a local!" And you can smile and fold your arms over your Villanova sweatshirt and say, "Yes, yes I am.  If only for a day...."
