Hot Nuts (part one)

Spoken: In the garden of Eden stood Eve & Adam
Stroking the loins of his madam
He smiled and with mirth
Because he knew that on earth
There were only two nuts and he had 'em

If any young girls in here my as well start walking
My friend Johnny is likely to do some fancy talking

Nuts!
Hot nuts!
You get'em from the peanut man
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Nuts!
Hot Nuts!
You get'em anywhere every you can.

You see that man all dressed in brown
He's got the hottest nuts in town

The fat man there standing tall
Tell me he aint got no nuts at all.

Now the girl over there dressed in green
She lost her quarter in the bathroom machine

The cool guy there who's name is Harry
He's got nuts but he's still a fairy

Now you hear our drummer going [tap tap]
I bet you five dollars he's got the [clap clap]

I got some in the kitchen, I got some in the hall,
I got some on my finger and I wiped it down the wall.

Well I got some in a Cadillac and I got some in a Ford
But the best I had was on the running board.

I got some in the sunshine, I got some in the rain
But the best I had was on a choo-choo-train.

The guy over there is a PiGam
Now he's got nuts but they ain't worth a damn.

See that girl her name is Pearl
She cracked so many nuts we call her squirrel.

Now you see that girl wearing the slacks?
She shacks!

Well bob-a-bob-a-loo-bob ju-bob-a-bam
They won't stay hot, I just don't give a damn
