I Shall Be Free
Well, I took me a woman late last night,
Is 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.
Dont hurt me none, dont hurt my pride
cause I got my little lady right by my side.
(right there

I said, my friend, john, brigitte bardot,

Licks my face and tickles my ear,
Bends me over and buys me beer.

A june crooner
A spoon feeder
And a natural leader)
Oh, there aint 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.
(shes 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,
