Thread Name: Lyr Req/Add: Keep on Truckin' Mama
Subject: RE: Keep on truckin mama? ^^
I used do these verses that I got from a fine guitarist named Mike Bloomfield in Chicago---1963--when we were both flunking out of Roosevelt University 'cause we spent all our time swapping songs in the lounge instead of going to class:

What's that smells like fish, babe?
Do it any time you wanna do.
What's that smells like fish, babe?
Do it any time ya wanna do>
Don't come in a bottle---don't come in a can,
That's what every good woman wants from every good man,
What's that smells like fish, babe?
Do it any time you wanna do.

God don't like ugly,
Baby, your home is in hell.
God don't like ugly,
Baby your home is in hell,
You sittin' 'round the house with your mouth in a pout,
All you need to be a beast is a tail and a snout.
God don't like ugly,
Baby, your home is in hell.

God don't...
God don't,
Asked your mama and your papa too,
What in God's name they gonna do with you.
God don't...

Take it slow and easy if you wanna get along with me,
Take it slow and easy if you wanna get along with me,
I got 1,2,3,4,5,6 reasons, If you double cross me it's an act of treason,
Take it slow and easy if you wanns get along with me.

Keep on truckin' mama, truck all your blues away,
Keep on...
A nickel is a nickel and a dime is a dime,
I can get it from you, babe, any old time,
Keep on truckin'...

God don't like ugly,
Baby, your home is in hell,
God don't like ugly,
Baby your home is in hell,
I asked your psychiatrist--plastic surgeon too,
Said you belong up in a tree goin', "Woo, woo, woo!"
God don't like ugly,
baby your home is in hell.
