I gotta a girl who's always late Anytime we have a date But i love her Yes i love her I'm gonna walk up to her gate And see if i can get it straight 'cause i want her I'm gonna ask her Is you is, or is you ain't, my baby The way you're acting lately makes me doubt You is still my baby, baby Seems my flame in your heart's done gone out A woman is a creature that has always been strange Just when you're sure of one you find She's gone and made a change Is you is, or is you ain't my baby Maybe baby's found somebody new Or is my baby still my baby true |

Hey, fellas, yes, you, fellas, listen to me, I got something to tell you And I want you to listen to every word and govern yourselves accordingly Now, you see these girls with these fine diamonds, fine furs and fine clothes Well, they're looking for a husband and you're listening to a man who knows They ain't foolin', and if you fool around with them You're gonna get yourself in a schoolin' Listen, if she saves you dough, and won't go to the show Beware If she's easy to kiss and won't resist Beware And if you go for a walk, and she listens while you talk She's tryin' to hook you And nobody's lookin' and she asks you to taste her cookin' Don't do it, don't do it And if you go to a show and she wants to sit in the back row Bring her down front, bring her right down front If you wanna go for a snack, and she wants to sit in the booth in the back Beware And listen, if she's used to caviar and fine silk When you go out with her she wanna a hot dog and a malted milk She's trying to get you If you're used to goin' to Carnegie Hall, but when you take her out night clubing All she wants is one meatball You better take it easy If she grabs your hand and says, "Darling, you're such a nice man" Beware, I'm telling you (Should I tell them no more?) (Tell them everything) You better listen to me 'cause I'm telling you what's being put down You better pick up on it If her sister calls your brother, you better get further I'm telling you, you better watch it And if she's acting kind of wild, and she says, "Darling, give me a trial" Don't you do it, don't be weak, don't give it to her And if she smiles in your face and just melts into place Let her melt, forget it, let her melt (Should I tell them no more?) (Tell them everything) Now listen, if she calls you up on the phone, and says, "Darling, are you all alone?" Tell her, "No, no, I've got two, three women with me" Don't pay no attention to women Stand up for your right, be a man, be a man (Are you listening?) If you turn out the lights and she don't fight That's the end, it's too late She's got you hooked, you might as well stick with her (Should I tell them no more?) If you get home about two and don't know what to do You pull back the curtains, and the whole family's looking at you Get your business straight Set the date, don't be late Brother, beware, beware, beware Brother, you better beware |

When you've got no more assurance Than a great big hunk of lead If you don't respond to romance Jack, you're dead! When a chick is smiling at you Even though there's nothing said If you stand there like a statue Jack, you're dead! You've been always kicking But you stubbed your toes When you ups and kicks the bucket Just like old man mose When you get no kicks from loving And you blow your top instead It's a fact that you ain't living Jack, you're dead! If you just ain't got nobody Since you've gone and lost your head Rigor mortis has set in daddy Jack, you're dead! What's the use of having muscles When your life hangs by a thread If you ain't got no red corpuscles Jack, you're dead! You've been always kicking But you stubbed your toes When you ups and kicks the bucket Just like old man mose When you get no kicks from loving And the news begins to spread All the cats will holler, "murder!" Jack, you're dead! All the breaths leaked out of you When your friends gather round the bed And look at you and say, "um, um, um, don't he look natural" When that happens to you, daddy Jack, you're dead! |

I sure had a wonderful time last night Least wise they tell me I did I sure had a wonderful time last night Really blew my lid Went to a party, I recollect that much But after four or five, you know I lost my touch I sure had a wonderful time last night Least wise they tell me I did I had a whale of good time last night Really got myself some kicks I sure had a wonderful time last night Took me right back to the sticks Between that hillbilly band and old Uncle Zeke And that new atomic beverage that they called "Sneaky Pete" I sure had a wonderful time last night Least wise they tell me I did Sure had a wonderful time last night Don't know how I got to bed Sure had a wonderful time last night Come here, feel this lump on my head They say I got kinda noisy And started to shout Four big bouncers grabbed me But I threw them out I sure had a wonderful time last night Least wise they tell me I did Sure had a wonderful time last night Really had myself some fun Sure had a wonderful time last night Didn't get home until about half past one You know I'd like to take you with me the next time I go But where the heck was it? Sure would like to know But I sure had a wonderful time last night |

Now if you've ever been down to New Orleans Then you can understand just what I mean All thru the week it's quiet as a mouse But on Saturday night they go from house to house You don't have to pay the usual admission If you're 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' Jimmie's 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 didn't 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 don't care how many fish in the sea But don't 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 |

I once lived the life of a millionaire Spending my money i didn't care Always taking my friends out for a good time Buying champagne, gin and wine But just as soon as my dough got low I couldn't find a friend, no place i go If i ever get my hands on a dollar again I'm gonna squeeze it, and squeeze it Till the eagle grins Nobody knows you when you're down and out In your pocket, not one penny And your friends, you haven't any And as soon as you get on your feet again Everybody is your long lost friend It's mighty strange, without a doubt, but Nobody wants you when you're down and out You know folks, i once had a mansion Way up on the side of a hill I'd give champagne and caviar parties Just for fun and get a thrill But you know things they just can't stay like that forever And now i can't muscle up enough money To buy a shot of gin But you know, if i ever get my hands on a dollar again I'm gonna squeeze it, and squeeze it till the eagle grins It's mighty strange, without a doubt Nobody wants you Nobody needs you Nobody wants you when you're down and out |
