[Verse]
Eb F7
Now if you've ever been down to New Orleans
A#7 Eb F7 Eb
Then you can understand just what I mean
Ab7
All through the week it's quiet as a mouse
Eb7 Abmaj6 Eb7
And on Saturday night they go from house to house
F7
You don't have to pay the usual admission
Eb7 F7
If you're a cook, a waiter or a good musician
Eb7 Ab7
So if you happen to be just passin' by
Eb7 Ab7 Eb7
Stop in at the Saturday Night Fish Fry
[Chorus]
Ab7 Eb7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
Ab7 A#7 Eb
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of daaaaaawn
Ab7 Eb7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
F7 A#7 Eb7
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of dawn
F7
Now my buddy and me was on the main stem
Eb7 F7 A#7
Foolin' around just me and him
Eb7 Ab7
We decided we could use a little something to eat
Eb Ab Eb
So we went to a house on Rampart Street
F7
We knocked on the door and it opened with ease
Eb F A#
And a lush little Miss said, "Come in, please"
Eb7 Ab7
Before we could even bat an eye
Eb7 Ab7 Eb7
We were right in the middle of a big fish fry
[Chorus]
Ab7 Eb7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
Ab7 A#7 Eb
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of daaaaaawn
Ab7 Eb7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
F7 A#7 Eb7
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of dawn
[Verse]
F7 A#7
Now the folks was havin' the time of their life
Eb A#
Sam was jivin' Jimmie's wife
Eb7 Ab7
Over in the corner was a beat up grand
Eb F Eb
Being played by a big fat piano man
F7
Now some of these folks wore expensive frocks
Eb7 A#7
Some of them had on bobbie socks
Eb7 Ab7
Everybody was nice and high
Eb7
At particular Saturday Night Fish Fry
[Chorus]
Ab7 Eb7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
Ab7 A#7 Eb
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of daaaaaawn
Ab7 Eb7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
F7 A#7 Eb7
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of dawn
[Verse]
Ab7
Now the women was screamin' and jumpin' and yellin'
Eb F7 Eb
The bottles was flyin', and the fish was smellin'
Ab7
Way up above all the noise we made
A#7 Ab Eb
Somebody hollered, "You better get outta here, this is a raid"
F7
I didn't know we was breaking the law
A#7 Eb7 F7 Eb7
But somebody reached over and hit me on the jaw
Ab7 A#7
They had us blocked off from front to back
Eb7 Ab Eb7
They was puttin' 'em in the wagon like potatoes in a sack
[Chorus]
Ab7 Eb7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
Ab7 A#7 Eb
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of daaaaaawn
Ab7 Eb7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
F7 A#7 Eb7
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of dawn
[Verse]
F7
I knew I could get away if I had a chance
Eb7 F7
But I was shakin' like I had that St. Vitus dance
Eb7 Ab7
I tried to crawl in under a bath tab
Eb Ab Eb
When a policeman said, "Where are you goin' there, bub?"
Eb7 F7
Now they got us out of there like a house on fire
Eb F7
They put us all in the black Maria
Eb7 Ab7
Now they might have missed a pitiful few
A# Eb
But they got both me and my buddy too
[Chorus]
Ab7 Eb7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
Ab7 A#7 Eb
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of daaaaaawn
Ab7 Eb7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
F7 A#7 Eb7
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of dawn
[Verse]
Ab7 A#
Well we headed for jail in a dazed condition
Eb F7
They booked each one of us on suspicion
Ab7
Now by chick came down and went my bail
A# Ab Eb
And finally got me outta that rotten jail
F7
If you ever want to get a fist in your eye
A#7 Eb F7 A#7
Just mention a Saturday Night Fish Fry
Eb7 Ab7
I don't care how many fish in the sea
A# N.G (Eb Db)
But don't ever mention a fish to me
[Chorus]
Ab7 Eb7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
Ab7 A#7 Eb
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of daaaaaawn
Ab7 Eb7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
F7 A#7 Eb7
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of dawn
[Outro]
