you're all invited to dance
All the fish just still alive
from the herring to the whale.
They'll turn out to shake a scale
Come along and follow me,
to the bottom of the sea.
We'll join in the jamboree
Lobsters dancing in a row,
Ben and Hattie lead the eel
The catfish is a dancing man,
but he can't, can't, can't,
To the strutting left and right,
men need no chink but a knife.
There won't be a hook in sight
to the bottom of the sea.
We'll join in the jamboree
Stop your dancing in a row.
You'll make this way to intro
There men had him in the heel,
The catfish is a dancing man,
but he can't, like the sardine can't.
For as truckin' left and right,
men is mostly what a night.
There won't be a hook in sight
We'll join in the jamboree
