Natchez....

....Mississippi, is right on the River and a grand old place,
with a long history and home of the Natchez Trace,
an overland route used by traders from the Ohio Valley,
and an important place in the U S Civil War history.

Laissez les Bon Ton Roulez! (Come and party-not literal tranlation)

A grand celebration of Mardi Gras is here,
and a good time is enjoyed by all, have no fear;
but it's a quiet City for most of the year,
a center of commerce for the farms that are near.
