Lyrics
[Verse 1]
(Double-O-Soul)
[Verse 2]
I dig rock and roll music
I can do the twine and the jerk
I wear strictly continental suits
And high collared shirts
I've got a reputation of being
Gentle, but bold
And that's why they call me
[Chorus]
Agent Double-O-Soul, baby (Double-O-Soul)
Agent Double-O-Soul (Double-O-Soul)
They call me Double-O-Soul, baby (Double-O-Soul)
I'm agent Double-O-Soul (Double-O-Soul)
[Verse 3]
I don't carry no pistol
I don't wear a false moustache
And you'll never see me carrying
Around a little black bag
My real name's no secret
But from me, it will never be told
I'm just known as
[Chorus]
Agent Double-O-Soul, baby (Double-O-Soul)
Agent Double-O-Soul (Double-O-Soul)
They call me Double-O-Soul, baby(Double-O-Soul)
I'm agent Double-O-Soul (Double-O-Soul)
[Bridge]
There once was a fella
Who was down on the rock and roll
He couldn't get himself together
He didn't have no kind of soul
The office put me on his case
And I tracked him down right away
Now, he's a DJ on a radio show
A station that everybody knows
[Chorus]
Call me Double-O-Soul, whoa-hoh
Call me Double-O-Soul, mmmm
(Double-O-Soul, Double-O-Soul, Double-O-Soul, Double-O-Soul)
[Outro]
At my job, I work real hard
I'm on the go, rain, sleet, or snow
I'm agent Double-O-Soul, baby (Double-O-Soul)
I'm agent Double-O-Soul (Double-O-Soul)
They call me Double-O-Soul, baby (Double-O-Soul)
