Dr. Feelgood - Saturday Night Fish Fry Lyrics
(jordan/walsh)(anglo-pic music co.ltd.)If youve ever been down to new orleansThen you can understand just what I meanAll through the week its as quiet as a mouseBut on saturday night they go from house to houseYou dont have to pay when you only mentionIf youre a cook or a waiter or a good musicianIf you just happen to be passing byStop in at the saturday night fish fryIt was rocking, it was rockingYou never seen such scuffling and shufflingtil the break of dawnIt was rocking, it was rockingYou never seen such scuffling and shufflingtil the break of dawnNow my buddy and me was on the bandstandFooling around, just me and himWe decided we could use something to eatSo we went to a house on rampart streetWe knocked on the door and it opened with easeA light-skinned miss said come in, pleaseBefore we could even bat an eyeWe was right in the middle of a big fish fryIt was rocking, it was rockingYou never seen such scuffling and shufflingtil the break of dawnIt was rocking, it was rockingYou never seen such scuffling and shufflingtil the break of dawnNow the woman was screaming and jumping and yellingThe bottles were flying and the fish were smellingFrom way up above all the noise they madeSomebody hollered better get outta here, this is a raidI didnt know we were breaking the lawSomebody reached over and hit me on the jawThey had locked up from the front and the backPutting them in the wagon like potato sacksIt was rocking, it was rockingYou never seen such scuffling and shufflingtil the break of dawnIt was rocking, it was rockingYou never seen such scuffling and shufflingtil the break of dawnI knew I could away if I had the chanceBut I was shaking like I had st. vitus danceI tried to crawl under a bathtubA policeman said hey, now where you going, bud?They got us outta there like a house on fireAnd put us all in that black mariahThey might of missed one or twoBut they got both me and my buddy tooIt was rocking, it was rockingYou never seen such scuffling and shufflingtil the break of dawnIt was rocking, it was rockingYou never seen such scuffling and shufflingtil the break of dawnWell we headed for jail in a dazed conditionThey booked each one of us on suspicionMy chick came down and she went my bailFinally got me outta that rotten jailIf you ever wanna go get a fist in your eyeJust mention a saturday night fish fryI dont care how many fish in the seaDont ever mention a fish to meIt was rocking, it was rockingYou never seen such scuffling and shufflingtil the break of dawnIt was rocking, it was rockingYou never seen such scuffling and shufflingtil the break of dawnIt was rocking, it was rockingYou never seen such scuffling and shufflingtil the break of dawn
