Outtakes / Song of the Shrimp Lyrics & Tabs by Frank Black
Outtakes / Song of the Shrimp
guitar chords lyrics
I saw three shrimps in the water
And two were old and grey
So I swam a little closer
And I heard the third one say
He showed his mama and his papa papa papa papa papa papa papa
The shrimp newspaper he read
And there the advertisement
To all the young shrimps said
Goodbye mommy shrimp
And Papa shake my hand
Here comes the shrimp boat for
To take me to Louisiane
His poor mama and his poor papa papa papa papa papa papa papa
They haven't heard from him yet
Last time they've seen his smiling face
His poor mama and his poor papa papa papa papa papa papa papa
They haven't heard from him yet
Last time they've seen his smiling face
Is when he jumped into the net
Goodbye mommy shrimp
And Papa shake my hand
Here comes the shrimp boat for
To take me to Louisiane
Here comes the shrimp boat for
To take me to Louisiane
Here comes the shrimp boat for
To take me ah take me
