"Yeah, it's almost dawn, the cops ain't gone
He hollered, "Rave on, children, I'm with you
Rave on, cats", he cried
The black dog barked, but the boy didn't flinch
Well, Dan got happy and he started raving
"It's almost dawn, the cops are gone
Let's all get Dixie fried"
"It's almost dawn, the cops are gone
He let us all know he wasn't scared of the law
He said, "It ain't my fault, hon, that I been pinched"
And all the cats knew to jump and hop
And I heard him holler as they led him away
He hollered, "Rave on, children, I'm with you
Let's all get Dixie fried"
He reached in his pocket and he flashed a quart
'Cause he was born and raised in a butcher shop
Rave on, cats", he cried
Let's all get Dixie fried"
He turned his head and this was what he had to say
And I heard him holler as they led him away
"It's almost dawn, the cops are gone
"It's almost dawn, the cops are gone
He let us all know, he wasn't scared of the law
"It's almost dawn, the cops are gone
Rave on, cats", he cried
Rave on, cats", he cried
Rave on, cats", he cried
Took off his jacket, said, "The night is short"
Let's all get Dixie fried"
Now, Dan was the bravest man that we ever saw
Now, Dan was the bravest man we ever saw
Let's all get Dixie fried"
They all ran in to see what it was about
He hollered, "Rave on, children, I'm with you
Well, the cops heard Dan when he started to shout
He pulled out a razor, but he wasn't shaving
He hollered, "Rave on, children, I'm with you
He hollered, "Rave on, children, I'm with you
He turned his head and this is what he had to say
