#9 in 1963.
INTRO:  C   D   G  C  
#1.
CSay, there's a place in New Orleans,
that Dserves fried chicken with turnip greens.
GCrawfish bisque that treats you right,
and Papa Joe plays there Cevery night.
#2.
CA little dark haired cutie says, 'Step right in,'
and Dyou can bet a whole dollar she'd be your friend.
GEverybody there has a comical time..down at Papa CJoe's.
(INTERLUDE:SAX:)
#3.
CPapa Joe's got a swinging band,
you can Drock and roll to Dixieland.
The Gcustomers know it's the place to go..
down at Papa CJoe's.
(INTERLUDE:PIANO:)
#4.
CA little waitress comes to set you down,
she's Dgot the best frog legs in town.
There's a Gwelcome sign hanging on the door,
so Cdon't you be afraid to Gask for more.
#5.
CNow the only time Joe closes at night, is Dwhen 
the po-lice comes and turns out the light.
They Gget a little mad but they don't fight..
down at Papa CJoe's.
(INTERLUDE:HORN SECTION:)
#6.
CIt's thicker than fleas on a monkey's back,
but the Dfolks down there, they like it like that.
They Glive it up and they all come back..
down at Papa CJoe's.
(OUTRO:PIANO:)
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.

Down At Papa Joe's:The Dixiebelles.

#9 in 1963.

C D G C

INTRO:

#1.

Say, there's a place in New Orleans,

that serves fried chicken with turnip greens.

Crawfish bisque that treats you right,

and Papa Joe plays there every night.

#2.

A little dark haired cutie says, 'Step right in,'

and you can bet a whole dollar she'd be your friend.

G C

Everybody there has a comical time..down at Papa Joe's.

(INTERLUDE:SAX:)

#3.

Papa Joe's got a swinging band,

you can rock and roll to Dixieland.

The customers know it's the place to go..

down at Papa Joe's.

(INTERLUDE:PIANO:)

#4.

A little waitress comes to set you down,

she's got the best frog legs in town.

There's a welcome sign hanging on the door,

C G

so don't you be afraid to ask for more.

#5.

C D

Now the only time Joe closes at night, is when

the po-lice comes and turns out the light.

They get a little mad but they don't fight..

down at Papa Joe's.

(INTERLUDE:HORN SECTION:)

#6.

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.

(OUTRO:PIANO:)
