Hold Tight (Want Some Seafood, Mama) - Fats Waller

I want some seafood, Mama

Choo-choo to Broadway through Cincinnati

Don’t get itchy with the 1, 2, 3

Life is just so fine

On the solid side of the line

Hold tight, hold tight, a-hold tight, hold tight

Fododo-de-yacka saki

Want some sea food mama

Shrimps and rice they’re very nice

Hold tight, hold tight, a-hold tight, hold tight

Fododo-de-yacka saki

Want some sea food mama

Steamers and sauce, then of course

I like oysters, lobsters too,

I like my tasty butter fish,

When I come home late at night

I get my favorite dish, fish

Hold tight, hold tight, hold tight, hold tight

Fododo-de-yacka saki

Want some seafood mama

Shrimps and rice they’re very nice

Hold tight, hold tight, hold tight, hold tight

Fododo-de-yacka saki

Want some seafood mama

Hold tight, hold tight, hold tight, hold tight

Fododo-de-yacka saki

Want some seafood mama

Say porgi, mackerel too

Tasty butterfish

When I come home late at night

Prepare my favorite dish, fish

Hold tight, hold tight, hold tight, hold tight

Fododododo Yacka sacki

want some seafood Mama

I want some seafood, Mama, etc…

Fish, etc…
