She's here Mr. Johnson

You're a little late

(Granny) oh, say it now, say it now, ahem
(Granny) me and the Ohio Players
(Granny) are gonna tell you about a worm
(Granny) he's the funkiest worm in the world
Ok, sing it, Clarence
Theres' a worm in the ground
Yes, there is
That's right, that's right
He's six feet tall
(Granny) six feet tall
He only comes around
(Granny) when he wants to get down
(Granny) but when he comes out of his hole
(Granny) he sounds something like this
(Granny) oh that's funky, that´s funky
(Granny) like nine cans of shaving powder, that's funky
(Granny) alright. Sing it again, clarence
(Clarence) and through all the land, yeah
(Granny) sing it
He plays in a band
(Granny) plays in a band
Plays guitar without any hands
Pretty good, I might add
(Granny) yeah
(Granny) when he grabs his guitar and starts to pluck
(Granny) everybody wants to get up and dance
(Granny) ah, get it baby
(Granny) I'm his manager, heh, heh
(Granny) gonna make a million dollars
(Granny) I get it all, cause he can't spend it
(Granny) don't stop now honey, get down
(Granny) that´s it, that´s it
(Granny) don't, don't
(Granny) don't fight the feeling
(Granny) don't fight it
(Granny) ok, that´s enough, get out of here
(Granny) here we go people
(Granny) lessen to it,this is realy funky
(Granny) get out of here
(Granny) goin' back in his hole

(Granny) we do?
(Granny) ok, alright
