C                                                  A7
Next Friday night your all invited To dance from eight to five 
Em                         G               C
All the fishes still alive Are having a ball 
C                                                  A7
Its some affair, they'll all be there From the herring to the whale 
Em                         G               C
They'll turn out to shake a scale In Neptune's Hall  


[CHORUS]

C
Come along and follow me To the bottom of the sea 
F         G7          Dm7         G    C   F    G
We'll join in the Jamboree At the Codfish Ball  
C
Lobsters dancing in a row Shuffle off to Buffalo 
F         G7          Dm7         G    C   F    G
Jelly fish sway to and fro at the Codfish Ball  

[BRIDGE]
F                   Dm7           F            Dm7   
Finn-an-haddie leads the eel through an Irish reel 
D                         Am7 
The catfish is a dancing man 
G                             C        G
But he can't can-can like the sardine can  

C
Tunas trucking left and right Minnnies mooching, what a night 
F         G7          Dm7         G    C   F     G
There won't be a hook in sight at the Codfish Ball
