Jeri on a Stump

Car on a stump on a Monday morning
Oh what a terrible sight to see
Can't go forward and can't go back
Open up the boot* and get out the jack
Hi yo get out the jack
Hey yo get out the jack
Hi yo get out the jack
Hey yo get out the jack

*regional variation: open up the trunk

Drove on the lawn and it looked quite smooth
Hi yo get out the jack
Got stuck on a stump and the car won't move
Hi yo get out the jack
Shellback men went to get some wood
Hi yo…
We said they couldn't but they said they could
Hi yo…

Drove on the lawn and the car got stuck
Hi yo get out the jack
But we aint gonna call no breakdown truck
Hi yo get out the jack
Get out mechanical toys and stuff
Hi yo get out the jack
Will Mick be able to get me off?
Hi yo get out the jack

Big Mick set to in front of us
Hi yo…
He didn't cry and he didn't fuss
Hi yo…
Laid on the ground with his bum in the air
Hi yo…
If Mick stays down we girls won't care…
Hi yo……..

Took us the middle and the forenoon too
Hi yo…
With loadsa new songs from the Shellback crew
Hi yo…
Buzzards circling overhead
Hi yo…
Say Jeri shouldn't 'a bothered to get out of bed
Hi yo…….

Communal writing effort- unless anyone wants to claim credit for individual bits? I noted down scraps and stuck it together.

Oh- all the suggestive bits about Mick were composed by Jeri :0)
