Saturday Night Fish Fry - Louis Jordan (路易斯·乔丹)/Bill Ward & His Dominoes[00:00:00]
Now if you've ever been down to New Orleans[00:00:05]
Then you can understand just what I mean[00:00:08]
All through the week it's quiet as a mouse[00:00:11]
But on Saturday night [00:00:13]
They go from house to house[00:00:14]
You don't have to pay the usual admission[00:00:16]
If you're a cook a waiter or a good musician[00:00:18]
So if you happen to be just passin' by[00:00:21]
Stop in at the Saturday Night Fish Fry[00:00:24]
It was rockin' it was rockin'[00:00:26]
You never seen such scufflin'[00:00:32]
And shufflin' 'til the break of dawn[00:00:33]
It was rockin' it was rockin'[00:00:37]
You never seen such scufflin'[00:00:42]
And shufflin' 'til the break of dawn[00:00:44]
Now my buddy and me was on the main stem[00:00:48]
Foolin' around just me and him[00:00:51]
We decided we could[00:00:53]
Use a little something to eat[00:00:54]
So we went to a house on Rampart Street[00:00:56]
We knocked on the door[00:00:59]
And it opened up with ease[00:01:00]
And a lush little miss said "Come in please"[00:01:01]
And before we could even bat an eye[00:01:04]
We were right in the middle of a big fish fry[00:01:07]
It was rockin' it was rockin'[00:01:10]
You never seen such scufflin'[00:01:15]
And shufflin' 'til the break of dawn[00:01:16]
It was rockin' it was rockin'[00:01:20]
You never seen such scufflin'[00:01:25]
And shufflin' 'til the break of dawn[00:01:27]
Now my buddy and me we fell right in[00:01:31]
We hollered "Let the joy begin"[00:01:33]
Now we're thinking we could[00:01:36]
Get a good place to play[00:01:37]
'Cauese the party was already on the way[00:01:39]
All of a sudden the lights went low[00:01:42]
And everybody lay straight[00:01:44]
For the front door[00:01:46]
Man I was so scared I didn't know[00:01:47]
Where to go[00:01:49]
I stood right there and I fell on the floor[00:01:50]
It was rockin' it was rockin'[00:01:52]
I never seen such scufflin'[00:01:57]
And shufflin' 'til the break of dawn[00:01:59]
It was rockin' it was rockin'[00:02:03]
I never seen such scufflin'[00:02:08]
And shufflin' 'til the break of dawn[00:02:09]
Now the women was screamin'[00:02:13]
And jumpin' and yellin'[00:02:15]
The bottles was flyin' [00:02:16]
And the fish was smellin'[00:02:17]
Way up above all the noise we made[00:02:19]
Somebody hollered [00:02:21]
"You better get outta here this is a raid"[00:02:22]
I didn't know we was breaking the law[00:02:24]
But somebody reached over[00:02:26]
And hit me on the jaw[00:02:28]
They had us blocked off from front to back[00:02:29]
And They was puttin' 'em in the wagon[00:02:32]
Like potatoes in a sack[00:02:33]
It was rockin' it was rockin'[00:02:34]
You never seen such scufflin'[00:02:40]
And shufflin' 'til the break of dawn[00:02:41]
It was rockin' it was rockin'[00:02:45]
I never seen such scufflin'[00:02:50]
And shufflin' 'til the break of dawn[00:02:52]
I knew I could get away if I had a chance[00:02:56]
But I was shakin' like I had[00:02:58]
That St Vitus dance[00:03:00]
I tried to crawl under a bath tab[00:03:01]
When a policeman said [00:03:03]
"Where are you goin' there bub "[00:03:05]
Now they got us out of there[00:03:06]
Like a house on fire[00:03:08]
They put us all in the black Maria[00:03:09]
Now The might have missed a pitiful few[00:03:12]
But they got both me and my buddy too[00:03:14]
It was rockin' it was rockin'[00:03:17]
You never seen such scufflin'[00:03:22]
And shufflin' 'til the break of dawn[00:03:24]
It was rockin' it was rockin'[00:03:27]
You never seen such scufflin'[00:03:33]
And shufflin' 'til the break of dawn[00:03:34]
We headed for jail[00:03:38]
In a dazed condition[00:03:39]
They booked each one of us on suspicion[00:03:41]
My chick came down and went my bail[00:03:44]
And finally got me outta that rotten jail[00:03:46]
Now If you ever want to[00:03:49]
Get a fist in your eye[00:03:50]
Just mention a Saturday Night Fish Fry[00:03:51]
I don't care how many fish in the sea[00:03:54]
But don't ever mention a fish to me[00:03:57]
It was rockin' it was rockin'[00:03:59]
You never seen such scufflin'[00:04:04]
And shufflin' 'til the break of dawn[00:04:06]
It was rockin' it was rockin'[00:04:10]
You never seen such scufflin'[00:04:15]
And shufflin' 'til the break of dawn[00:04:17]
