Hello everybody this cat is back,

Looking for a place called the Chicken Shack

They only serve warm beer rice and beans

But it feels just like it's down in New Orleans

Brace yourself baby I'm here to attack

Down at the place called the Chicken Schack


The girls at that place are mighty fine

But stay off sadie green cause that girl is mine

The moonlight shines through the holes in the wall

Everybody there is having a ball

They don't care that the place looks like a wreck

Down at the place called the Chicken Shack


I wanna rip it, rock it, really bop it

Flip it, flop it, David Crocket

Just like Roy Montrell everytime he hears hat mellow saxophone

The good old rockin' days will never come back

Except down at the place called the Chicken Shack


The good old rockin days will never come back

Except down at the place called the Chicken Shack


[Inspired by the song "Chicken Shack Boogie" by Amos Milburn. It's available on the record "Earl Palmer Backbeat, The World Greatest Rock'n'Roll Drummer", Released on Ace Records. This song was made in 1956. ]
