Hot Ringlets
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When I sing I sing with lisp
but that don't make me a bona fide black man
I come from the delta
near baton rouge
down the road a piece
just south of twickenham
see the young girls
dressed in their singlets
walking down the beach
they make me think of you
old mother huddard went to the cupboard
pulled out a monkey
put him in a monkey stew
wanna go down on your hot ringlets
get my tongue tangled up x 3
My brand new record's called cloven hoof
but that don't make me a faggot or a poof
I tried to get a diamond planted in my tooth
but my dentist said no
and my dog said woof woof
see the young girls
dressed in their singlets
walking down the street
they make me think of you
little Johnny stout
went and pulled it out
showed it to his mother
said it ain't pink it's blue
see the young girls
dressed in their singlets
walking down the beach
they make me think of you
old mother huddard went to the cupboard
pulled out a monkey
put him in a monkey stew
wanna go down on your hot ringlets
get my tongue tangled up x 3
