[Intro]
I saw three shrimp in the water
Two were old and gray
I swam a little bit closer and
I heard the third one say
[Chorus]
"Goodbye, Mama Shrimp, Papa, shake my hand
Here come the shrimp boat for to take me Louisian'
Here come the shrimp boat for to take me Louisian'"
[Verse 1]
He showed his mama and papa
The shrimp newspaper he read
An invitation to all the shrimp
And this is what it said
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
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
I saw three shrimp in the water
Two were old and gray
I swam a little bit closer and
I heard the third one say
[Chorus]
"Goodbye, Mama Shrimp, Papa, shake my hand
Here come the shrimp boat for to take me Louisian'
Here come the shrimp boat for to take me Louisian'"
[Verse 1]
He showed his mama and papa
The shrimp newspaper he read
An invitation to all the shrimp
And this is what it said
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
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
