Fried Catfish And Bibles
Performed by Shemekia Copeland

Chicken Bone Charlie and Sally Sweet Potata
Tearin′ up the house doin' the alligator
Leftover Louie and his husband Dan
Two-steppin′ by the garbage can
Everybody headed straight to the floor
When they came to the joint with
The sign on the door

Fried catfish and bibles sold here
Firecrackers and ice cold beer
Hear the band rockin' soon as you get near
Fried catfish and bibles sold here


Rich folks, poor folks, beggars and thieves
Preacher playin' poker with an ace up his sleeve
Ol′ blues mama playin′ slide with a knife
Guy lookin' for trouble with a policeman′s wife
Nothing was sure 'cept a real good time
When you got to the place with the beat up sign
Forget whatever′s on your mind
Jump right up... shake that behind
Just shake it
Just shake it
Eh toi

Fried catfish and bibles sold here
Firecrackers and ice cold beer
Hear the band rockin' soon as you get near
Fried catfish and bibles sold here

Everybody′s welcome it's a family affair
You ain't been nowhere ′til you been there
White folks, black folks, every shade in between
Strangest bunch of creatures you ever seen
Wigs flying off, false teeth popping out
And you can hear everybody shout

Fried catfish and bibles sold here
Firecrackers and ice cold beer
Hear the band rockin′ soon as you get near
Fried catfish and bibles sold here
