(Down At) Papa Joe's - Cornbread, Jerry, The Dixie Belles

Say, there’s a place in New Orleans

That serves fried chicken with turnip greens

Crawfish bisque that’ll treat you right

And Papa Joe plays there ev’ry night

A little dark haired beauty says «Step right in»

And you can bet a full dollar she’s be yo' friend

And ev’rybody there has a toler’ble time

Down at Papa Joe’s

(Instrumental Break)

Papa Joe’s got a swingin' band

You can rock and roll to Dixieland

The customers knows it’s the place to go Down at Papa Joe’s

(Piano Break)

A little waitress comes to set you down

She’s got the best frog legs in town

There’s a welcome sign hangin' on the door

So don’t you be afraid to ask for more

Now the only time Joe’s closed at night

Is when the Police come and turns out the light

They get a little mad 'cause they don’t fight

Down at Papa Joe’s

(Instrumental Break)

It’s thicker than fleas on a monkey’s back

But the folks down there, they like it like that

They live it up and they all come back

Down at Papa Joe’s
