Now on the outskirts of town, there's a little night spot
G
Dan dropped in about five o'clock
G
Took off his jacket, said, "The night is short"
N.C.
G
He hollered, "Rave on, children, I'm with you
D
Rave on, cats", he cried
G C
"It's almost dawn, the cops are gone
D G
Let's all get Dixie fried"
G
Well, Dan got happy and he started raving
G
He pulled out a razor, but he wasn't shaving
G
And all the cats knew to jump and hop
N.C.
G
He hollered, "Rave on, children, I'm with you
D
Rave on, cats", he cried

"It's almost dawn, the cops are gone
D G
Let's all get Dixie fried"

Well, the cops heard Dan when he started to shout
G
They all ran in to see what it was about
G
And I heard him holler as they led him away
N.C.
G
He hollered, "Rave on, children, I'm with you
D
Rave on, cats", he cried

"It's almost dawn, the cops are gone
D G
Let's all get Dixie fried"

Well now, Dan was the bravest man that we ever saw

He let us all know, he wasn't scared of the law
