[Verse 1]
A                    D                                  A
I woke up this mornin' and all my shrimps was dead and gone
D
I woke up this mornin', ooh, and all my shrimp was dead and gone
E                               D                         A
I was thinkin' about you, baby, why you hear me weep and moan
 
[Chorus]
A7
I got dead shrimps here, someone is fishin' in my pond
      D7                                             A7
I got dead shrimps here, ooh, someone fishin' in my pond
               E7                      D7              A7   E7
I've served my best bait, baby, and I can't do that no harm
 
[Verse 2]
A                       D7
Everything I do, babe, you got your mouth stuck out
A                                      A7
Hole where I used to fish, you got me posted out
             D7                           A
Everything I do, you got your mouth stuck out,
E7                                 D7                        A7   E7
At the hole where I used to fish, baby, you've got me posted out
 
[Chorus]
A7
I got dead shrimps here, 'n' someone fishin' in my pond
       D7                                       A7
I got dead shrimps here, someone fishin' in my pond
             E7                      D7                  A7  E7
Catchin' my goggle-eye perches, and they barbequin' the bone
 
[Verse 2]
A                                D
Now you taken my shrimps, baby, you know you turned me down
A                                          A7
I couldn't do nothin', until I got myself unwound
              D7                              A
You taken my shrimps, oh, know you turned me down
E7                            D7                  A7   E7
Babe, I couldn't do nothin', until I got myself unwound
