Lyrics
Well, I took me a woman late last night I's three-fourths drunk, she looked uptight She took off her wheel, took off her bell Took off her wig, said, "how do I smell?" I hot-footed it . . . bare-naked . . Out the window!
Well, sometimes I might get drunk Walk like a duck and stomp like a skunk Don't hurt me none, don't hurt my pride 'Cause I got my little lady right by my side (Right there Proud as can be)
I's out there paintin' on the old woodshed When a can a black paint it fell on my head I went down to scrub and rub But I had to sit in back of the tub (Cost a quarter And I had to get out quick . . Someone wanted to come in and take a sauna)
Well, my telephone rang it would not stop It's president kennedy callin' me up He said, "my friend, bob, what do we need to make the country grow?" I said, "my friend, john, brigitte bardot Anita ekberg, sophia loren." (Put 'em all in the same room with ernest borgnine!)
Well, I got a woman sleeps on a cot She yells and hollers and squeals a lot Licks my face and tickles my ear Bends me over and buys me beer (She's a honeymooner A june crooner A spoon feeder And a natural leader)
Oh, there ain't no use in me workin' so heavy I got a woman who works on the levee Pumping that water up to her neck Every week she sends me a monthly check (She's a humdinger Folk singer Dead ringer For a thing-a-muh jigger)
Late one day in the middle of the week Eyes were closed I was half asleep I chased me a woman up the hill Right in the middle of an air raid drill It was little bo peep! (I jumped a fallout shelter I jumped a bean stalk I jumped a ferris wheel)
Now, the man on the stand he wants my vote He's a-runnin' for office on the ballot note He's out there preachin' in front of the steeple Tellin' me he loves all kinds-a people (He's eatin' bagels He's eatin' pizza He's eatin' chitlins He's eatin' bullshit!)
Oh, set me down on a television floor I'll flip the channel to number four Out of the shower comes a grown-up man With a bottle of hair oil in his hand (It's that greasy kid stuff What I want to know, mr. football man, is What do you do about willy mays and yul brynner Charles de gaulle And robert louis stevenson?)
Well, the funniest woman I ever seen Was the great-granddaughter of mr. clean She takes about fifteen baths a day Wants me to grow a cigar on my face (She's a little bit heavy!)
Well, ask me why I'm drunk alla time It levels my head and eases my mind I just walk along and stroll and sing I see better days and I do better things (I catch dinosaurs I make love to elizabeth taylor . . Catch hell from richard burton!)
