Rag mama rag, I can't believe it's true
|
Rag mama rag, what did you do?
|
I crawled up to the railroad track
|
Let the four nineteen scratch my back
|
|
Shag mama shag now, what's come over you
|
Rag mama rag, I'm a pulling out your gag
|
Gonna turn you a loose like an old caboose
|
Got a tail, I need a drag
|
|
I ask about your turtle
|
And you ask about the weather
|
Well, I can't jump the hurdle
|
And oh, you can't get together
|
|
And we could be relaxing in my sleeping bag
|
But all you want to do for me, mama
|
Is a rag mama rag, there's nowhere to go
|
Rag mama rag, come on risen up the bow
|
|
Rag mama rag, where do you roam?
|
Rag mama rag, bring your skinny little body back home
|
It's dog eat dog and cat eat mouse
|
You can rag mama rag all over my house
|
|
Hail stones beatin' on the roof
|
The bourbon is a hundred proof
|
It's you and me and the telephone
|
Our destiny is quite well known
|
|
We don't need to sit and brag
|
All we gotta do is
|
Rag mama rag, mama rag
|
|
Rag mama rag, where do you roam?
|
Rag mama rag, bring your skinny little body back home
|
|
