Chicken Shack Boogie - Amos Milburn and The Big Little Band/Little Walter/Lionel Hampton/The Canned Heat/The Big Town Playboys

Chicken Shack Boogie
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 Shack

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, every time he hears hat mellow saxophone
That good old rockin' days will never come back
Except down at the place called the Chicken Shack

That good old rockin' days will never come back
Except down at the place called the Chicken Shack
