Song Of The Shrimp


(Bennett / Tepper)





(Recorded for the film "Girls! Girls! Girls!)


I saw three shrimp in the water, two were old and grey
I swam a little bit closer and .. I heard the third one say


* Goodbye mama shrimp, papa shake my hand
Here come the shrimper for to take me to Louisian'
Here come the shrimper for to take me to Louisian'


He showed his mama and papa, the shrimp newspaper he read
An invitation to all the shrimp and this is what it said
Free ride, New Orleans, stay in grand hotel
Big creole gal who help you come out of your shell
Big creole gal who help you come out of your shell


If I should live to be ninety, I will never forget
The little shrimp and the song he sang as he jumped into the net


* Repeat


Here come the shrimper for to take me to Louisian'
Here come the shrimper for to take me to Louisian'
Here come the shrimper for to take me to Louisian'
