Текст (слова) песни: B.B. King - Saturday Night Fish Fry

Now if youve ever been down to New Orleans
Then you can understand just what I mean
All thru the week its quiet as a mouse
But on Saturday night they go from house to house
You dont have to pay the usual admission
If youre a cook, a waiter or a good musician
So if you happen to be just passin by
Stop in at the Saturday Night Fish Fry

It was rockin, it was rockin
You never seen such scufflin
And shufflin till the break of dawn
It was rockin, it was rockin
You never seen such scufflin
And shufflin till the break of dawn

Now my buddy and me was on the main stem
Foolin around just me and him
We decided we could use a little something to eat
So we went to a house on Rampart Street
We knocked on the door and it opened up with ease
And a lush little Miss said, "Come in, please"
And before we could even bat an eye
We were right in the middle of a big fish fry

It was rockin, it was rockin
You never seen such scufflin
And shufflin till the break of dawn
It was rockin, it was rockin
You never seen such scufflin
And shufflin till the break of dawn

Now the folks was havin the time of their life
And Sam was jivin Jimmies wife
Over in the corner was a beat up grand
Being played by a big fat piano man
Some of the chicks wore expensive frocks
Some of them had on bobbie socks
But everybody was nice and high
At this particular Saturday Night Fish Fry

It was rockin, it was rockin
You never seen such scufflin
And shufflin till the break of dawn
It was rockin, it was rockin
You never seen such scufflin
And shufflin till the break of dawn

Now the women were screamin and jumpin and yellin
The bottles was flyin, and the fish was smellin
And way above all the noise we made
Somebody hollered, "You better get outta here, this is a raid!"
I didnt know we was breaking the law but
Somebody reached over and hit me on the jaw
Now they had us blocked off from front to back
And they was puttin em in the wagon like potatoes in a sack

It was rockin, it was rockin
You never seen such scufflin
And shufflin till the break of dawn
It was rockin, it was rockin
You never seen such scufflin
And shufflin till the break of dawn

I knew I could get away if I had a chance
But I was shakin like I had the St. Vitus dance
So I tried to crawl in under a bath tab
When a policeman said, "Where are you goin there, bub?"
Now they got us out of there like a house on fire
And put us all in the black Maria
Now they might have missed a pitiful few
But they got both me and my buddy too

It was rockin, it was rockin
You never seen such scufflin
And shufflin till the break of dawn
It was rockin, it was rockin
You never seen such scufflin
And shufflin till the break of dawn

Well we headed for jail in a dazed condition
They booked each one of us on suspicion
Now my chick came down and paid my bail
And finally got me outta that rotten jail
Now if you ever want to get a fist in your eye
Just mention a Saturday Night Fish Fry
I dont care how many fish in the sea
But dont ever mention a fish to me

It was rockin, it was rockin
You never seen such scufflin
And shufflin till the break of dawn
It was rockin, it was rockin
You never seen such scufflin
And shufflin till the break of dawn
