Down At Papa Joe s:The Dixiebelles.
#9 in 1963.
INTRO:
#1.
Say, there s a place in New Orleans,
that serves fried chicken with turnip greens.
Crawfish bisque that treats you right,
and Papa Joe plays there every night.
#2.
A little dark haired cutie says, Step right in,
and you can bet a whole dollar she d be your friend.
Everybody there has a comical time..down at Papa Joe s.
(INTERLUDE:SAX:)
#3.
Papa Joe s got a swinging band,
you can rock and roll to Dixieland.
The customers know it s the place to go..
down at Papa Joe s.
(INTERLUDE:PIANO:)
#4.
A little waitress comes to set you down,
she s got the best frog legs in town.
There s a welcome sign hanging on the door,
so don t you be afraid to ask for more.
#5.
Now the only time Joe closes at night, is when
the po-lice comes and turns out the light.
They get a little mad but they don t fight..
down at Papa Joe s.
(INTERLUDE:HORN SECTION:)
#6.
It s thicker than fleas on a monkey s back,
but the folks down there, they like it like that.
They live it up and they all come back..
down at Papa Joe s.
(OUTRO:PIANO:)
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
