They call, they call me the fat man
'Cause I weight two hundred pounds
All the girls, they love me
'Cause I know my way around
I was standin', I was standin' on the corner
Of Rampart and Canal
I was watchin', watchin'
Watchin' all these creole gals
Wah wah wah, wah wah
Wah wah waah, wah wah wah
Wah wah waah, wah wah wah
Wah wah wah
Wah waaa-ah wah
Wah wah wah, wah wah wah
Wah wah wah, wah wah wah
Wah wah wah
I’m goin', I’m goin' goin' away
And I’m goin', goin' to stay
'Cause women and a bad life
They’re carrying this soul away
One of the nicest, most genuine men in show business. Saw Fats live 3 times in my lifetime. He loved his fans and would talk to us if he had the time. He ALWAYS played what you wanted, Sure do miss this giant of a legend! Love you Fats...
Always knew about the song since I was a child and just had to come back to it after hearing it from The Irishman.
Good ol Martin Scorsese introducing older music to a younger audience!

Music is all about one's taste of course, but if you don't like it, just skip away. Rating thumbs down for this classic and wonderful artist, for 6 (six!) decades in music, a genuine insult, know your musical history punks! Sorry to be rude..., thank you sincerely for posting, peace to you all.
I heard this awesome song, while i was playing Mafia 2 and.... From the moment i heard it i i can't just stop listening. The song could be from 49 but it's amazing. Thanks to Fats Domino. He is the best
