I saw three shrimps in the water And two were old and gray So I swam a little closer And I heard the third one say Goodbye mommy shrimp Papa shake my hand Here comes the shrimper for To take me to Louisian' He showed his mama and his papa The shrimp newspaper he read Then there the advertisement To all the youg shrimps said Free ride New Orleans Stay in grande hotel Meet a Creole gal To help you out of your shell Goodbye mommy shrimp Papa shake my hand Here comes the shrimper for To take me to Louisian' His poor mama and his poor papa They haven't heard from him yet Last time they seen his smiling face Is when he jumped into the net Goodbye mommy shrimp Papa shake my hand Here comes the shrimper for To take me to Louisian'
