Lyrics

Well, I was born in the desert
Came on up from New Orleans
Came up on a tornado sunlight in the sky
I went around all day with the
Moon sticking in my eye
Hey-hey-hey, all you young girls
Wherever you're at
I got a brand-new Cadillac, got a Ferrari too
Sure 'nuff, baby, sure 'nuff, 'n' yes, I do
Got the time to teach ya now
Bet you'll learn some too
Got the time to teach ya now
Bet you'll learn some too
Sure 'nuff, baby, sure 'nuff, 'n' yes, I do
Hey-hey-hey, all you young girls
Whatever you do
Hey-hey-hey, all you young girls
Whatever you do
Well, come on by and see me
I'll make it worth it to you
And you
Play with me and I'll play with me and you
Sleep with me and I'll sleep with me and you
Stick with me and I'll stick with you, woo
Stick with me and I'll stick with you
Written by: Captain Beefheart, Herb Bermann
