:''This article refers to the traditional New Orleans song; for the color see Indian red (color). Indian Red is traditionally sung at the beginning and at the end of gatherings of Mardi Gras Indians in New Orleans. It is a traditional chant that may have been first recorded in 1947 by Danny Barker for King Zulu label〔Lipitz, George. ''Time Passages: Collective Memory and American Popular Culture'', p. 250. University of Minnesota Press, 1990. ISBN 0-816-63881-0〕 (Barker on guitar & vocals, Don Kirkpatrick on piano, Heywood Henry on baritone saxophone, and Freddie Moore). It has since been recorded many times by, among others, Dr. John and Wild Tchoupitoulas. ==Lyrics== :Madi cu defio, en dans dey, end dans day〔A corruption of a phrase from an old Creole song, "M'alle couri dans deser" (Wilson, ''Traditional Louisiana French Folk Music'', 59; Mrs. Augustine Moore, interview by author, 1980.
