Crayfish, crawfish, or crawdads – members of the superfamilies Astacoidea and Parastacoidea – are freshwater crustaceans resembling small lobsters, to which they are related. They breathe through feather-like gills and are found in bodies of water that do not freeze to the bottom; they are also mostly found in brooks and streams where there is fresh water running, and which have shelter against predators. Most crayfish cannot tolerate polluted water, although some species such as the invasive Procambarus clarkii are more hardy. Crayfish feed on living and dead animals and plants.
In Australia, New Zealand and South Africa, the term crayfish or cray generally refers to a saltwater spiny lobster, of the genus Jasus that is indigenous to much of southern Oceania, while the freshwater species are usually called yabby or koura, from the indigenous Australian and Māori names for the animal respectively, or by other names specific to each species. An exception is the freshwater Murray crayfish, which belongs to the family Parastacidae and is found on Australia's Murray River.

Plot: Show promoter Cartwright has stolen the songs that Frank wrote while he was in the big house. The boys go to Cartwright to get Frank credit for his work, and Cartwright has them arrested for extortion, of which they are innocent. Luckily, they are in the same paddy wagon as Pete and when his gang springs Pete, the boys are sprung. The only way that they can prove now that the songs are Frank's is to put on a show before Cartwright show 'Melody for You' opens. The boys and Patsy find a theater, paint the scenery and put all the kids in the neighborhood to work on the show. Pete Detroit makes sure that Cartwright's show does not open on the same night and that his cabs bring in an audience.

There's a little critter that the Cajun people love.
She got two big claws and eight tiny feet,
And a tail full o' meat, that's good to eat.
Chorus:
Crawfish, I got 'em if you want 'em.
Crawfish, eat 'em while they're hot.
Crawfish, gonna pour some pepper on 'em.
Crawfish, I like it like that.
You boil 'em down 'til they nice and red,
You squeeze the tail and you suck the head.
Crawfish.
Where the Crawfish come from nobody knows.
But the Cajuns tell a story 'bout a long time ago.
When the old people had to leave l'Àcadie
They say the little red lobster followed them down here.
Chorus.
You can take my money and my big black Cadillac.
Roll my jelly and don't look back,
But don't do that, I'm gonna call the police.
