Presley, Elvis - Song Of The Shrimp Lyrics






I saw three shrimp in the water, two were old and gray
I swam a little bit closer and .. I heard the third one say

Goodbye mama shrimp, papa shake my hand
Here 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 read
An invitation to all the shrimp and this is what it said
Free ride, New Orleans, stay in grand hotel
Big Creole gal who help you come out of your shell
Big Creole gal who help you come out of your shell

If I should live to be ninety, I will never forget
The little shrimp and the song he sang as he jumped into the net

Goodbye mama shrimp, papa shake my hand
Here come the shrimper for to take me to Louisian'
Here come the shrimper for to take me to Louisian'

    This shows Elvis could sing calypso Trinidad type music this guy could sing anything at his best and a great natural actor no telling what he could have achieved if he had the right manager and the artistic freedom he deserved I think he's still would have been here today because he would have been happy anyway he's still number 1 very multi-talented individual God bless Elvis
