Intro Eb G7 C7 F7 A#
[Verse]
A# C7
Now if you've ever been down to New Orleans
F7 A# C7 A#
Then you can understand just what I mean
Eb7
All through the week it's quiet as a mouse
A#7 Ebmaj6 A#7
And on Saturday night they go from house to house
C7
You don't have to pay the usual admission
A#7 C7
If you're a cook, a waiter or a good musician
A#7 Eb7
So if you happen to be just passin' by
A#7 Eb7 A#7
Stop in at the Saturday Night Fish Fry
[Chorus]
Eb7 A#7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
Eb7 F7 A#
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of daaaaaawn
Eb7 A#7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
C7 F7 A#7
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of dawn
C7
Now my buddy and me was on the main stem
A#7 C7 F7
Foolin' around just me and him
A#7 Eb7
We decided we could use a little something to eat
A# Eb A#
So we went to a house on Rampart Street
C7
We knocked on the door and it opened with ease
A# C F
And a lush little Miss said, "Come in, please"
A#7 Eb7
Before we could even bat an eye
A#7 Eb7 A#7
We were right in the middle of a big fish fry
[Chorus]
Eb7 A#7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
Eb7 F7 A#
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of daaaaaawn
Eb7 A#7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
C7 F7 A#7
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of dawn
[Verse]
C7 F7
Now the folks was havin' the time of their life
A# F
Sam was jivin' Jimmie's wife
A#7 Eb7
Over in the corner was a beat up grand
A# C A#
Being played by a big fat piano man
C7
Now some of these folks wore expensive frocks
A#7 F7
Some of them had on bobbie socks
A#7 Eb7
Everybody was nice and high
A#7
At particular Saturday Night Fish Fry
[Chorus]
Eb7 A#7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
Eb7 F7 A#
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of daaaaaawn
Eb7 A#7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
C7 F7 A#7
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of dawn
[Verse]
Eb7
Now the women was screamin' and jumpin' and yellin'
A# C7 A#
The bottles was flyin', and the fish was smellin'
Eb7
Way up above all the noise we made
F7 Eb A#
Somebody hollered, "You better get outta here, this is a raid"
C7
I didn't know we was breaking the law
F7 A#7 C7 A#7
But somebody reached over and hit me on the jaw
Eb7 F7
They had us blocked off from front to back
A#7 Eb A#7
They was puttin' 'em in the wagon like potatoes in a sack
[Chorus]
Eb7 A#7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
Eb7 F7 A#
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of daaaaaawn
Eb7 A#7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
C7 F7 A#7
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of dawn
[Verse]
C7
I knew I could get away if I had a chance
A#7 C7
But I was shakin' like I had that St. Vitus dance
A#7 Eb7
I tried to crawl in under a bath tab
A# Eb A#
When a policeman said, "Where are you goin' there, bub?"
A#7 C7
Now they got us out of there like a house on fire
A# C7
They put us all in the black Maria
A#7 Eb7
Now they might have missed a pitiful few
F A#
But they got both me and my buddy too
[Chorus]
Eb7 A#7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
Eb7 F7 A#
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of daaaaaawn
Eb7 A#7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
C7 F7 A#7
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of dawn
[Verse]
Eb7 F
Well we headed for jail in a dazed condition
A# C7
They booked each one of us on suspicion
Eb7
Now by chick came down and went my bail
F Eb A#
And finally got me outta that rotten jail
C7
If you ever want to get a fist in your eye
F7 A# C7 F7
Just mention a Saturday Night Fish Fry
A#7 Eb7
I don't care how many fish in the sea
F N.D (A# Db)
But don't ever mention a fish to me
[Chorus]
Eb7 A#7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
Eb7 F7 A#
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of daaaaaawn
Eb7 A#7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
C7 F7 A#7
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of dawn
[Outro]
