Shrimp Boats

Shrimp Boats - Jo Stafford/Frankie laine

Oh

Shrimp boats is a coming

Their sails are in sight

Shrimp boats is a coming

There's dancing tonight

Why don't you hurry hurry hurry home

Why don't you hurry hurry hurry home

Look here the shrimp boats is a coming

There's dancing tonight

Shrimp boats is a coming

Their sails are in sight

Shrimp boats is a coming

There's dancing tonight

Why don't you hurry hurry hurry home

Why don't you hurry hurry hurry home

Look here the shrimp boats is a coming

There's dancing tonight

Shrimp boats is a coming there's dancing tonight

They go to sea with the evenin' tide

And the women folk wave their goodbye

There they go

There they go

While the Louisiana moon floats on high

And they wait for the day they can cry

Shrimp boats is a coming

Their sails are in sight

Shrimp boats is a coming

There's dancing tonight

Why don't you hurry hurry hurry home

Why don't you hurry hurry hurry home

Look here the shrimp boats is a coming

There's dancing tonight

Shrimp boats is a coming

There's dancing tonight

Happy the days while they're mending the nets

Til once more they ride heart out to sea

There they go

There they go

Then how lonely the long nights will be

Til that wonderful day when they sing

Shrimp boats is a coming

Their sails are in sight

Shrimp boats is a coming

There's dancing tonight

Why don't you hurry hurry hurry home

Why don't you hurry hurry hurry home

Look here the shrimp boats is a coming

There's dancing tonight

Shrimp boats is a coming there's dancing

There's dancin' there's dancin' there's dancing

Shrimp boats is a coming tonight
