Intro A# D7 G7 C7 F
[Verse]
F G7
Now if you've ever been down to New Orleans
C7 F G7 F
Then you can understand just what I mean
A#7
All through the week it's quiet as a mouse
F7 A#maj6 F7
And on Saturday night they go from house to house
G7
You don't have to pay the usual admission
F7 G7
If you're a cook, a waiter or a good musician
F7 A#7
So if you happen to be just passin' by
F7 A#7 F7
Stop in at the Saturday Night Fish Fry
[Chorus]
A#7 F7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
A#7 C7 F
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of daaaaaawn
A#7 F7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
G7 C7 F7
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of dawn
G7
Now my buddy and me was on the main stem
F7 G7 C7
Foolin' around just me and him
F7 A#7
We decided we could use a little something to eat
F A# F
So we went to a house on Rampart Street
G7
We knocked on the door and it opened with ease
F G C
And a lush little Miss said, "Come in, please"
F7 A#7
Before we could even bat an eye
F7 A#7 F7
We were right in the middle of a big fish fry
[Chorus]
A#7 F7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
A#7 C7 F
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of daaaaaawn
A#7 F7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
G7 C7 F7
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of dawn
[Verse]
G7 C7
Now the folks was havin' the time of their life
F C
Sam was jivin' Jimmie's wife
F7 A#7
Over in the corner was a beat up grand
F G F
Being played by a big fat piano man
G7
Now some of these folks wore expensive frocks
F7 C7
Some of them had on bobbie socks
F7 A#7
Everybody was nice and high
F7
At particular Saturday Night Fish Fry
[Chorus]
A#7 F7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
A#7 C7 F
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of daaaaaawn
A#7 F7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
G7 C7 F7
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of dawn
[Verse]
A#7
Now the women was screamin' and jumpin' and yellin'
F G7 F
The bottles was flyin', and the fish was smellin'
A#7
Way up above all the noise we made
C7 A# F
Somebody hollered, "You better get outta here, this is a raid"
G7
I didn't know we was breaking the law
C7 F7 G7 F7
But somebody reached over and hit me on the jaw
A#7 C7
They had us blocked off from front to back
F7 A# F7
They was puttin' 'em in the wagon like potatoes in a sack
[Chorus]
A#7 F7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
A#7 C7 F
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of daaaaaawn
A#7 F7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
G7 C7 F7
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of dawn
[Verse]
G7
I knew I could get away if I had a chance
F7 G7
But I was shakin' like I had that St. Vitus dance
F7 A#7
I tried to crawl in under a bath tab
F A# F
When a policeman said, "Where are you goin' there, bub?"
F7 G7
Now they got us out of there like a house on fire
F G7
They put us all in the black Maria
F7 A#7
Now they might have missed a pitiful few
C F
But they got both me and my buddy too
[Chorus]
A#7 F7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
A#7 C7 F
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of daaaaaawn
A#7 F7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
G7 C7 F7
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of dawn
[Verse]
A#7 C
Well we headed for jail in a dazed condition
F G7
They booked each one of us on suspicion
A#7
Now by chick came down and went my bail
C A# F
And finally got me outta that rotten jail
G7
If you ever want to get a fist in your eye
C7 F G7 C7
Just mention a Saturday Night Fish Fry
F7 A#7
I don't care how many fish in the sea
C N.A (F Db)
But don't ever mention a fish to me
[Chorus]
A#7 F7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
A#7 C7 F
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of daaaaaawn
A#7 F7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
G7 C7 F7
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of dawn
[Outro]
