(Words & music by Bennett - Tepper)I saw three shrimp in the water, two were old and grayI swam a little bit closer and .. I heard the third one sayGoodbye mama shrimp, papa shake my handHere come the shrimper for to take me to Louisian'Here come the shrimper for to take me to Louisian'He showed his mama and papa, the shrimp newspaper he readAn invitation to all the shrimp and this is what it saidFree ride, New Orleans, stay in grand hotelBig Creole gal who help you come out of your shellBig Creole gal who help you come out of your shellIf I should live to be ninety, I will never forgetThe little shrimp and the song he sang as he jumped into the netGoodbye mama shrimp, papa shake my handHere come the shrimper for to take me to Louisian'Here come the shrimper for to take me to Louisian'Here come the shrimper for to take me to Louisian'Here come the shrimper for to take me to Louisian'
