Ain't it hard to stumble and land in some funny lagoon? Ain't it hard to stumble and land in some muddy lagoon? Especially when it's nine below zero and three o'clock in the afternoon?
Ain't gonna hang no picture, ain't gonna hang no picture frame Ain't gonna hang no picture, gonna hang no picture frame Well, I might look like Robert Ford but I feel just like a Jesse James
Well, I wish I was on some Australian mountain range Oh, I wish I was on some Australian mountain range I got no reason to be there but I imagine it would be some kind of change
I got my dark sunglasses, I got for good luck my black tooth I got my dark sunglasses, I'm carryin' for good luck my black tooth Don't ask me nothin' 'bout nothin', I just might tell you the truth
I got a woman in Jackson, I ain't gonna say her name I got a woman in Jackson, I ain't gonna say her name She's a brown-skin woman but I love her just the same
Never thought love had a rainbow on it Used to think a cloud was a nightmare That was up until when I first met you Now I go around hoping you care.
Dance, dance, feel it all around you Dance, dance, dance Never thought love had a rainbow on it See the girl dance See the girl dance.
Mississippi mud never touched her fingers California sand lies in her hand Love her more than life as the daylight lingers Early in the morning I'll be her man.
Dance, dance, feel it all around you Dance, dance, dance Mississippi mud never touched her fingers See the girl dance See the girl dance.
You may be a hater, you may be a lover You can bet your life one destroys the other I don't know how it all began, which came first The egg or the hen
The moon comes up and the sun goes down This old world keeps spinning around Just as sure as the day turns into the night What you do in the dark will turn up in the light Masked man ridin' out across the land Spreading destruction and moving his hand He carries a ray-gun, shoots from the hip Got your past in his pocket, your future's in his grip
You may be a hater, you may be a lover You bet your life one destroys the other I don't know how it all began, which came first The egg or the hen
Now, you bet your life without a doubt Asking a masked man to leat you out He's got you so tight that you can't even see That ray-gun is pointed right at you and me
You won't see it coming You won't feel the blow You won't get no warning You won't never know You can't start it sooner And fix it up later And you ain't going to read about it in the newspaper
Rich or poor, mighty and meek Don't need no ticket, you've all got a seat High up on the mountain, low down in the alley We'll all watch the world turn into death valley
You may be a hater, you may be a lover You can bet your life one destroys the other I don't know how it all began, which came first The egg or the hen
Better shake my hand 'cause time is winding up Shake your neighbor's hand 'cause time is winding up
You may be a hater, you may be a lover You can bet your life one destroys the other I don't know how it all began, which came first The egg or the hen

You went away and left me long time ago Now you're knocking on my door I hear you knocking, but you can't come in I hear you knocking, go back where you been
I begged you not to go but you said goodbye And now you're telling me all your lies I hear you knocking, but you can't come in I hear you knocking, go back where you been
You better get back to your used-to-be Cos you're kinda love aint good for me I hear you knocking, but you can't come in I hear you knocking, go back where you been
I told you way back in fifty two That I would never go with you I hear you knocking but you can't come in I hear you knocking, go back where you been.....
