The Homewreckers - Saturday Night Fish Fry Lyrics
Well if you ever been down to New OrleansYou could understand just what I meanAll through the week, it's quiet as a mouseBut on Saturday night, they go from house to houseYou don't have to pay the usual admissionIf you're a cook or a waiter or a good musicianIf you happen to be just passin' byStop in at the Saturday Night Fish FryIt was rockin', it was rockin'You never seen such scuffle and shuffle 'til the break of dawnIt was rockin', it was rockin'You never seen such scuffle and shuffle 'til the break of dawnWell my buddy and me was on the main stemFoolin' around just me and himBut we decided we could use a little something to eatAnd we went to a house on Rampart StreetKnocked on the door, it opened with easeAnd a lurch little misses said, "Come in, please"Before we could even bat an eyeWe was right in the middle of a big fish fryIt was rockin', it was rockin'You never seen such scuffle and shuffle 'til the break of dawnIt was rockin', it was rockin'You never seen such scuffle and shuffle 'til the break of dawnWell my buddy and me, we fell right inAnd we hollered, "Whoa let the joy begin!"Figured this was a good place to play'Cause the party was already under wayBut all of a sudden the lights went lowAnd everybody headed straight for the front doorI got so scared I didn't know where to goSo I stood right there, until I fell on the floorIt was rockin', it was rockin'You never seen such scuffle and shuffle 'til the break of dawnIt was rockin', it was rockin'You never seen such scuffle and shuffle 'til the break of dawnWell the women was screamin', cryin', and yellin'Bottles was flyin' and the fish was smellin'Way up above all the noise they madeSomebody hollered, "Hey man, this is a raid!"Didn't even know that we was breakin' the lawBut somebody reached over and hit me on the jawHad us blocked off from the front to the backThey were throwin' us in the wagon like potato sacksIt was rockin', it was rockin'You never seen such scuffle and shuffle 'til the break of dawnIt was rockin', it was rockin'You never seen such scuffle and shuffle 'til the break of dawnWell I knew I could get away if I had a chanceBut shakin' like I had the St. Vitus danceTried to crawl under a bathtubThe policeman said, "Hey where you goin', bub?"They got us all out of that house afireThrew us all in that Black MariaThey might have missed a pitiful fewBut they got poor me and my buddy tooIt was rockin', it was rockin'You never seen such scuffle and shuffle 'til the break of dawnIt was rockin', it was rockin'You never seen such scuffle and shuffle 'til the break of dawnWell they took us to jail in a dazed conditionAnd booked each one of us on suspicionHad to call my chick to come and post my bailAnd finally got me out of that rotten jailAnd if you ever want to get a fist in your eyeWell just mention a Saturday night fish fryDon't care how many fish in the seaBut, hey, don't ever mention a fish to meIt was rockin', it was rockin'You never seen such scuffle and shuffle 'til the break of dawnIt was rockin', it was rockin'You never seen such scuffle and shuffle 'til the break of dawnIt was rockin', it was rockin'You never seen such scuffle and shuffle 'til the break of dawnIt was rockin', it was rockin'You never seen such scuffle and shuffle 'til the break of dawnIt was rockin', it was rockin'You never seen such scuffle and shuffle 'til the break of dawnIt was rockin', it was rockin'You never seen such scuffle and shuffle 'til the break of dawnWell it was rockin', it was rockin'You never seen such scuffle and shuffle 'til the break of dawnIt was rockin', it was rockin'You never seen such scuffle and shuffle 'til the break of dawnIt was rockin', it was rockin'You never seen such scuffle and shuffle 'til the break of dawn
