I’m gonna run it down to y’all

Tell them anything you wanna now

I ain’t nothin but a nasty gal now

A hey hey

I said, you said I was a bitch now

Oh, didn’t ya? Didn’t ya?

You said, I was a witch now

I’m gonna tell them why I’m gonna tell them why

You used to love it, ooh

To ride my broom, honey

I used to love it, ooh, I used to love to

Ride the range with ya, baby

(Sing the song, sing the song)

I ain’t nothin but a hey hey

Nothin but a

A hey, hey

I said you said I was an evil wench, oh

Didn’t ya? didn’t ya?

You said I was an alley cat

I’m gonna tell them why, I’m gonna tell them why

You used to love it, oh

When I’d scratch your back, baby

I used to love it when you did it

When ya did it to me real good

(Oh lawd, oh lawd)

Oh, you know you did it to me so good

A hey hey

I said you went around tellin' everybody

Yeah, you just put me down now

You dragged my name in the mud, all over town

I’m gonna tell them why

You said I didn’t treat you, I didn’t know you

I didn’t love you well

But you know you lied

Yes, you did

I used to leave you hangin' in the bed

By your finger nails screamin'

(Tell the truth, tell the truth)

I ain’t nothin' but a nasty gal now

A hey, a hey, a hey

I said you said I turned you on, I turned you inside out

I even turned your head around now

You said I loved you every way but your way

And my way was too dirty for you now

But if I really did him in, I say why he want this

Nasty gal back again

(So you can finish what you started, well, well, well, well, ooh, lawd)

And I will give it to ya, you can have it

Come on, take it now

(Well, well, well, ooh, lawd)

I ain’t nothin but a nasty gal now

A hey hey

I said you said I turned you on, I turned you

Inside out

I even turned your head around now

You said I loved you every way but your way

And my way was too dirty for you now

You said I pricked your nose with a diamond

I hurt you bad and I caused you pain, yea

You said I wasn’t nothin but a dirty dog

But still you want me back again, back again

(Get down, get down, get down, mama, mama, get down)

You say you want it, you say you need it now

(Get down, get down, get down, mama, mama, get down, well, well, well)

You say you want it, well, I’m gonna give it to ya, give it to ya

(Mmm mmm mmm)

You say you want it, you say it's getting real good now

(Mmm mmm mmm)

You say you want it, well, I’m gonna let you have it, let ya have it

(Get down, get down, get down, mama, mama, get down)

A hey hey, I ain’t nothin' but a nasty gal now

(Woo oooh woo oooh)

A hey hey no good dirty nasty gal now

(Get down, get down, get down, mama, mama, get down)

A hey hey aint nothin' but a, nothin' but a, nothin' but a

(Get down, get down, get down, mama, mama, get down)

A hey hey a no good dirty nasty gal now
