Lyrics
Come along and follow me
To the bottom of the sea
We'll join in the jamboree
At the codfish ball
Lobsters dancing in a row
Shuffle off to Buffalo
Jellyfish sway too and fro
At the codfish ball
Fin and haddie lead the eels
Through an Irish reel
The catfish is a dancing man
But he can't can-can
Like the sardine can
Tunas truckin' left and right
Minnie's moochin' what a night
There won't be a hook in sight
At the codfish ball
(music interlude)
Each red snapper's
Looking dapper
Dressed up to the gills
The octopusses all have fun
As they wait to see
All the grunion run
So, come along and follow me
To the bottom of the sea
We'll join in the jamboree
At the codfish ball
At the bottom of the sea
Everyone is family
Come and join this jamboree
Called the codfish ball
All the swordfish love to play
Every clam is here today
To shell-e-brate this holiday
At the codfish ball
Shark and salmon
Play backgammon
Till the break of day
And each seahorse
Is here of course
This is the place
Where the plaice all play!
Yellowfin swim in and out
Dancing with each bass and trout
Water beetles twist and shout
At the codfish ball
So, come along and follow me
To the bottom of the sea
We'll join in the jamboree
At the codfish ball
At the cod-fish ball
