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.

"Percy Junior, Percy Junior...what's that...what's that you playin'?"

"Workin' on something new."

"Sounds like some bullshit. Man, you really think the audience is gonna -- "

"Well, Rooster said I could play what I wanted."

"No, never mind anything that Rooster tell you. We'll play stuff that I like, kay?"

Ain't nobody like my style, yeah

I light my fire, yeah (I light ba-ba, I light ba-ba)

They blow it out, yeah (They blew it out, they blew it out)

And don't nobody wanna feel like that, no

Monkeys on my back crawl

And watch them all fall

Go fall, look out

Nobody wanted to dance

When I had a lot of time on my hands

Now I got a lot of hands on my time

And everybody wanna be a friend of mine

Whoa whoa, I wouldn't mind a friend

The fellas back home all tryin' to win

Moon keeps shinin' on bootleg bottles

Cops in the street keep ya feet on the throttle

Selling what ya got in a Ford A-model

Yellin' "Go, PJ go!"

Ain't n'ing idle, everything is wild, yeah

You can be hit now, yeah (soon as you turn around)

He in the ground, yeah (boy died, six feet underground)

And ain't no Bible, at this here Church, no

You won't find God no, might meet Him first, aw

Oh God, look out

Nobody wanted to leave

House so packed that we couldn't even breathe

And ain't no better place to fall in love

Angel sent from Heaven above

Swing down and come change your life

You might make a baby, might meet your wife

But one sure thing that you're gonna say

"Deep down South there's a 'lil old place

Them Idlewild cats, man, they don't play

Don't make me send a telegram to Rooster, he'll shoot ya."

"You better come harder than that, sweetie...this ain't no mortuary!"

And you don't want to take it to the gat so soon

[Still stick it to the] Jenkins waitin' in the upper room

'Till ya make her say her prayers

You some players but you made us mashed potato

That potato, blast you hater, blast the gator

So you might just wanna kick back and drink goose

Take that to ya woman, relax, break loose

Cuff her soon, if she choose, she gon' walk away from you

Straight to the Rooster, 'cause he's cock-a-doodle-cool, what they do fool

Moonshine run, the small town, crap shootin' all time

Phat you and that's gotta matchin' suit and hat

[All casper suing kinda robbers out da wild]

Time to break it on, break it on down, now

Percival, take it on out

Say whoa Nelly, whoa Nelly

Say whoa Pappy, whoa Pappy

Say whoa Mammy, whoa Mammy

Say whoa Pappy, whoa, everybody get up

No, no, no, no get down

Everybody get up

No, no, no, no get down

Everybody get up

No, no, no, no get down
