Story behind the song
On a trip my wife and kids were experiencing our grandson being fussy and rude. As they passed the town of Chackbay, my wife said baw we gonna throw you in Shackbay Baby Jail if you don't behave yourself. They had a good laugh, and the rest is INVALID
Lyrics
There’s a good reason I got the blues, and it ain’t never been this bad
One day on our way to Ocean View, I gave Mom and Dad Nd Gi Gi the misery
With my fussing and screaming and being rude
As we drove passed the town of Shackbay, Gi Gi said boy we gonna drop you off at shackbay Baby Jail
If you don’t behave yourself
Well the warden pulled me out of my car seat and led me down a old dirty stinky grimy sidewalk.
And we walked passed a sign that said, “Welcome to Shackbay Baby Jail, you better behave yourself now, heh heh.
They threw me in a cell with Roger B Feathers, we were born on the same day
But he turned me from bad to worse, now I’m stuck behind these bars
Lawd Lawd Lawd!
Help me now
You’d better eat everything off your plate, you’d better go take your bath now
You’d better listen to Mam and Dad, and go to bed when they tell you to
Or you’ll wind up in Shackbay Baby Jail just like me, I already starved to death three times
Well it ain’t no fun, and if you don’t listen to Mom and Dad, You gonna wind up in Shackbay Baby Jail
Well don’t argue to your Mama, don’t throw your food on the floor
And don’t even ask Mom and Dad to give you some more, cause you wasted it all
Yes you did, we saw you,
And they know where they’re gonna send you, yea they got a cell for you
So stop pulling your sister’s hair, and crying and screamin’ and carrying on
And you, stop calling your brother those names
Or you gonna wind up in Shackbay Baby Jail, and have them old Shackbay Baby Jail Blues
