Intro F A7 D7 G7 C
[Verse]
C D7
Now if you've ever been down to New Orleans
G7 C D7 C
Then you can understand just what I mean
F7
All through the week it's quiet as a mouse
C7 Fmaj6 C7
And on Saturday night they go from house to house
D7
You don't have to pay the usual admission
C7 D7
If you're a cook, a waiter or a good musician
C7 F7
So if you happen to be just passin' by
C7 F7 C7
Stop in at the Saturday Night Fish Fry
[Chorus]
F7 C7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
F7 G7 C
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of daaaaaawn
F7 C7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
D7 G7 C7
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of dawn
D7
Now my buddy and me was on the main stem
C7 D7 G7
Foolin' around just me and him
C7 F7
We decided we could use a little something to eat
C F C
So we went to a house on Rampart Street
D7
We knocked on the door and it opened with ease
C D G
And a lush little Miss said, "Come in, please"
C7 F7
Before we could even bat an eye
C7 F7 C7
We were right in the middle of a big fish fry
[Chorus]
F7 C7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
F7 G7 C
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of daaaaaawn
F7 C7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
D7 G7 C7
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of dawn
[Verse]
D7 G7
Now the folks was havin' the time of their life
C G
Sam was jivin' Jimmie's wife
C7 F7
Over in the corner was a beat up grand
C D C
Being played by a big fat piano man
D7
Now some of these folks wore expensive frocks
C7 G7
Some of them had on bobbie socks
C7 F7
Everybody was nice and high
C7
At particular Saturday Night Fish Fry
[Chorus]
F7 C7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
F7 G7 C
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of daaaaaawn
F7 C7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
D7 G7 C7
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of dawn
[Verse]
F7
Now the women was screamin' and jumpin' and yellin'
C D7 C
The bottles was flyin', and the fish was smellin'
F7
Way up above all the noise we made
G7 F C
Somebody hollered, "You better get outta here, this is a raid"
D7
I didn't know we was breaking the law
G7 C7 D7 C7
But somebody reached over and hit me on the jaw
F7 G7
They had us blocked off from front to back
C7 F C7
They was puttin' 'em in the wagon like potatoes in a sack
[Chorus]
F7 C7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
F7 G7 C
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of daaaaaawn
F7 C7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
D7 G7 C7
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of dawn
[Verse]
D7
I knew I could get away if I had a chance
C7 D7
But I was shakin' like I had that St. Vitus dance
C7 F7
I tried to crawl in under a bath tab
C F C
When a policeman said, "Where are you goin' there, bub?"
C7 D7
Now they got us out of there like a house on fire
C D7
They put us all in the black Maria
C7 F7
Now they might have missed a pitiful few
G C
But they got both me and my buddy too
[Chorus]
F7 C7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
F7 G7 C
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of daaaaaawn
F7 C7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
D7 G7 C7
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of dawn
[Verse]
F7 G
Well we headed for jail in a dazed condition
C D7
They booked each one of us on suspicion
F7
Now by chick came down and went my bail
G F C
And finally got me outta that rotten jail
D7
If you ever want to get a fist in your eye
G7 C D7 G7
Just mention a Saturday Night Fish Fry
C7 F7
I don't care how many fish in the sea
G N.E (C Db)
But don't ever mention a fish to me
[Chorus]
F7 C7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
F7 G7 C
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of daaaaaawn
F7 C7
It was rockin', it was rockin'
D7 G7 C7
You never seen such scufflin' and shufflin' 'til the break of dawn
[Outro]
