Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Mama says yes, Papa says no
Make up your mind 'cause I gotta go
Gonna raise hell at the Union Hall
Drive myself right over the wall
[Chorus]
Rip this joint, gonna save your soul
'Round and 'round and 'round we go
Roll this joint, gonna get down low
Start my starter, gonna stop the show
Yeah
Oh yeah
[Verse 2]
Mister President, Mister Immigration Man
Let me in, sweetie, to your fair land
Tampa bound and Memphis too
Wow, Short Fat Fannie is on the loose
I dig that sound on the radio
Then slip right across to Buffalo
Dick and Pat in ol' D.C.
Well, they're gonna hold some shit for me
[Verse 3]
Yin, yang, you're my thang
Oh, now, baby, don't you hear me sing?
Flip, flop, fit to drop
Come on now, baby, won't you let it rock?
[Verse 4]
Oh yeah, oh yeah
San Jose down to Santa Fe
Kiss me quick, baby, won't you make my day?
New Orleans with the Dixie Dean
And to Dallas, Texas, with the Butter Queen
[Chorus]
Rip this joint, gonna rip yours too
It's a brand new step, it's a-what we do
Roll this joint and get down low
'Round and 'round and 'round we go
[Outro]
Wham, bam, Birmingham
Alabam'
Don't give a damn
Little Rock and I'm fit to drop
Ah, let it rock
