Intro C E7 A7 D7 G
[Verse]
G A7
Now if you've ever been down to New Orleans
D7 G A7 G
Then you can understand just what I mean
C7
All through the week it's quiet as a mouse
G7 Cmaj6 G7
And on Saturday night they go from house to house
A7
You don't have to pay the usual admission
G7 A7
If you're a cook, a waiter or a good musician
G7 C7
So if you happen to be just passin' by
G7 C7 G7
Stop in at the Saturday Night Fish Fry
[Chorus]
C7 G7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
C7 D7 G
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of daaaaaawn
C7 G7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
A7 D7 G7
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of dawn
A7
Now my buddy and me was on the main stem
G7 A7 D7
Foolin' around just me and him
G7 C7
We decided we could use a little something to eat
G C G
So we went to a house on Rampart Street
A7
We knocked on the door and it opened with ease
G A D
And a lush little Miss said, "Come in, please"
G7 C7
Before we could even bat an eye
G7 C7 G7
We were right in the middle of a big fish fry
[Chorus]
C7 G7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
C7 D7 G
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of daaaaaawn
C7 G7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
A7 D7 G7
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of dawn
[Verse]
A7 D7
Now the folks was havin' the time of their life
G D
Sam was jivin' Jimmie's wife
G7 C7
Over in the corner was a beat up grand
G A G
Being played by a big fat piano man
A7
Now some of these folks wore expensive frocks
G7 D7
Some of them had on bobbie socks
G7 C7
Everybody was nice and high
G7
At particular Saturday Night Fish Fry
[Chorus]
C7 G7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
C7 D7 G
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of daaaaaawn
C7 G7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
A7 D7 G7
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of dawn
[Verse]
C7
Now the women was screamin' and jumpin' and yellin'
G A7 G
The bottles was flyin', and the fish was smellin'
C7
Way up above all the noise we made
D7 C G
Somebody hollered, "You better get outta here, this is a raid"
A7
I didn't know we was breaking the law
D7 G7 A7 G7
But somebody reached over and hit me on the jaw
C7 D7
They had us blocked off from front to back
G7 C G7
They was puttin' 'em in the wagon like potatoes in a sack
[Chorus]
C7 G7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
C7 D7 G
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of daaaaaawn
C7 G7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
A7 D7 G7
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of dawn
[Verse]
A7
I knew I could get away if I had a chance
G7 A7
But I was shakin' like I had that St. Vitus dance
G7 C7
I tried to crawl in under a bath tab
G C G
When a policeman said, "Where are you goin' there, bub?"
G7 A7
Now they got us out of there like a house on fire
G A7
They put us all in the black Maria
G7 C7
Now they might have missed a pitiful few
D G
But they got both me and my buddy too
[Chorus]
C7 G7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
C7 D7 G
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of daaaaaawn
C7 G7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
A7 D7 G7
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of dawn
[Verse]
C7 D
Well we headed for jail in a dazed condition
G A7
They booked each one of us on suspicion
C7
Now by chick came down and went my bail
D C G
And finally got me outta that rotten jail
A7
If you ever want to get a fist in your eye
D7 G A7 D7
Just mention a Saturday Night Fish Fry
G7 C7
I don't care how many fish in the sea
D N.B (G Db)
But don't ever mention a fish to me
[Chorus]
C7 G7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
C7 D7 G
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of daaaaaawn
C7 G7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
A7 D7 G7
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of dawn
[Outro]
