Yah-hee, icky thump
Who"d-a thunk?
Sittin" drunk
On a wagon to Mexico
Her hair, what a chump
And my head
Got a b**p
When I hit it on the radio
Red-head señorita
Lookin" dead
Came to said,
'I need a bed' en español
So I gave a drink of water
I"m gonna sing around the collar
Well, I don"t need a microphone
[guitar solo]
[keyboard solo]
Icky thump, with the lump
In my throat
Grab my coat
And now it"s reckon
I was ready to go
Yeah, I swam beside the hair
She had one white eye
One blank stare
Lookin" up, lyin" there
On a stand in her hair
Was a candy cane
Black rum, sugar cane
Dry eye, somethin" strange!
La la, la la la la la la la la la laaa laaa laaa
[keyboard solo]
Well, Americans:
What, nothin" better to do?
Why don"t you kick yourself out?
You"re an immigrant too.
Who"s usin" who?
What should we do?
Well you can"t be a pimp
And a prostitute too
Icky thump, handcuffed to a bunk
Robbed blind
Looked around
And there was nobody else
Left alone
I hit myself with a stone
Went home
And learned how to clean up after myself
Who"d-a thunk?
Sittin" drunk
On a wagon to Mexico
Her hair, what a chump

Got a b**p
