Saturday Night Fish Fry - Louis Jordan & His Tympany Five[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 thru the week it's quiet as a mouse[00:00:11]
But on saturday night they go[00:00:14]
From house to house[00:00:15]
You don't have to pay the usual admission[00:00:16]
If you're a cook a waiter or a good musician[00:00:19]
So if you happen to be just passin' by[00:00:22]
Stop in at the saturday night fish fry[00:00:24]
It was rockin' it was rockin'[00:00:27]
You never seen such scufflin'[00:00:33]
And shufflin' 'till the break of dawn[00:00:34]
It was rockin' it was rockin'[00:00:38]
You never seen such scufflin'[00:00:44]
And shufflin' 'till the break of dawn[00:00:45]
Now my buddy and me was on the main stem[00:00:49]
Foolin' around just me and him[00:00:53]
We decided we could use[00:00:55]
A little something to eat[00:00:56]
So we went to a house on rampart street[00:00:58]
We knocked on the door[00:01:01]
And it opened up with ease[00:01:02]
And a lush little miss said "come in please"[00:01:03]
And before we could even bat an eye[00:01:06]
We were right in the middle of a big fish fry[00:01:09]
It was rockin' it was rockin'[00:01:11]
You never seen such scufflin'[00:01:17]
And shufflin' 'till the break of dawn[00:01:18]
It was rockin' it was rockin'[00:01:22]
You never seen such scufflin'[00:01:28]
And shufflin' 'till the break of dawn[00:01:29]
Now the folks was havin' the time of their life[00:01:33]
And sam was jivin' jimmie's wife[00:01:36]
Over in the corner was a beat up grand[00:01:39]
Being played by a big fat piano man[00:01:42]
Some of the chicks wore expensive frocks[00:01:45]
Some of them had on bobbie socks[00:01:47]
But everybody was nice and high[00:01:50]
At this particular saturday night fish fry[00:01:53]
It was rockin' it was rockin'[00:01:55]
You never seen such scufflin'[00:02:01]
And shufflin' 'till the break of dawn[00:02:02]
It was rockin' it was rockin'[00:02:06]
You never seen such scufflin'[00:02:12]
And shufflin' 'till the break of dawn[00:02:13]
It was rockin' it was rockin'[00:02:39]
You never seen such scufflin'[00:02:45]
And shufflin' 'til the break of dawn[00:02:46]
It was rockin' it was rockin'[00:02:50]
You never seen such scufflin'[00:02:55]
And shufflin' 'til the break of dawn[00:02:57]
Now the women were screamin'[00:03:01]
And jumpin' and yellin'[00:03:02]
The bottles was flyin' and the fish was smellin'[00:03:04]
And way up above all the noise they made[00:03:06]
Somebody hollered [00:03:09]
"Better get out of here this is a raid"[00:03:10]
Now I didn't know we was breakin' the law[00:03:12]
But somebody reached up[00:03:15]
And hit me on the jaw[00:03:16]
They had us blocked off[00:03:17]
From the front to the back[00:03:18]
And they was puttin' 'em[00:03:20]
In the wagon like potato sacks[00:03:21]
It was rockin' it was rockin'[00:03:22]
You never seen such scufflin'[00:03:28]
And shufflin' 'til the break of dawn[00:03:29]
It was rockin' it was rockin'[00:03:33]
You never seen such scufflin'[00:03:39]
And shufflin' 'til the break of dawn[00:03:40]
I knew I could get away if I had a chance[00:03:44]
But I was shakin' like I had the St Vitus dance[00:03:47]
Now I tried to crawl under a bathtub[00:03:50]
When the policeman said [00:03:52]
"Where you goin' there bub "[00:03:54]
Now they got us out of there like a house afire[00:03:55]
Put us all in that Black Maria[00:03:58]
Now they might have missed a pitiful few[00:04:01]
But they got poor me and my buddy too[00:04:03]
It was rockin' it was rockin'[00:04:06]
You never seen such scufflin'[00:04:11]
And shufflin' 'til the break of dawn[00:04:13]
It was rockin' it was rockin'[00:04:17]
You never seen such scufflin'[00:04:22]
And shufflin' 'til the break of dawn[00:04:23]
We headed for jail in a dazed condition[00:04:28]
They booked each one of us on suspicion[00:04:31]
Now my chick came down and went for my bail[00:04:33]
And finally got me out of that rotten jail[00:04:36]
Now if you ever want to get a fist in your eye[00:04:39]
Just mention a Saturday night fish fry[00:04:41]
I don't care how many fish in the sea[00:04:44]
But don't ever mention a fish to me[00:04:47]
It was rockin' it was rockin'[00:04:49]
You never seen such scufflin'[00:04:55]
And shufflin' 'til the break of dawn[00:04:56]
It was rockin' it was rockin'[00:05:00]
You never seen such scufflin'[00:05:06]
And shufflin' 'til the break of dawn[00:05:07]
