HTML carousel using text over a static image - html

Question

(new to this)
I'm trying to get a static image with a carousel of different text going across the top. I've tried using the Bootstrap carousel HTML and removing sections (such as the multiple images), and using the "carousel-caption" class for my text, but that will take some styling to get it centered etc. This might be the best way, but if there is a simpler way, please let me know! (its in a jumbotron div as i was using a picture from my jumbotron section for ease)
TIA

You need something like this I guess?
You can beautify it as per your requirement.
