Slavery’s medieval, baby, you made me do such evil things, oh oh
Oh, slavery’s medieval, you made me do such evil things, oh
Oh, I put horns on like the devil, and took the devil for my king
God forbid, that was bad, wrong
Like the ancient ‘gyptian empire
You keep me fallin’ with a ball ‘n’ chain
Oh, like the ancient ‘gyptian empire
You keep me fallin’ with a ball ‘n’ chain
Oh, once your pyramids was built
Like the Pharaoh done done, you give me the jilt, oh oh
Boy, you hurt me baby!
You put the whammy on me baby, then you lulled to sleep my brain
You put the whammy on me baby, then you lulled to sleep my brain
Then you done the hocus-pocus, zip-zap!
I was tied on the track, here come the train, chug chuga chug, chuga chuga chug!
Well we’d fall out every mornin’ baby, then you’d punch me out at night, ouh!
Well, we’d fall out every mornin’, then you’d punch me out at night
Well, the ref said, " Clear decision, that woman sho’ can fight", oh oh!
The manicure you gave me baby, took my nails off to the bone, oh oh oh oh
Well, the manicure you gave me, took my nails off to the bone, hmmmm
Huh! Such a pedicure you gave me, the ambulance had to come and carry me home
Yes it did, oh oh oh oh oh
You let me hold it baby, but I couldn’t give none away
Well, you let me hold it baby, but I couldn’t give none away
I’d have to be strong as Godzilla, to stay with you another day, wooh oh oh oh oh oh
So I took to heavy drinkin’, barrels of rum and buckets of gin, what I did?
Well, I took to heavy drinkin’, barrels of rum and buckets of gin, oh oh
Smoked so much maragoochee
The hippies had to go plant them seeds again, yeah baby whole wide world
But I’m crazy ‘bout you baby, no matter how much it hurts, oh oh oh oh
Oh, I’m crazy ‘bout you baby, no matter how much it hurts
Well, I’m afraid of your thunder and lightning
But I love your fireworks
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Oh, I’m afraid of your thunder and lightning
Oh, but I love, oh yes I love, oh yes I love, love, love, love, love
I love, love your, love your fireworks
Oooh, oh yeah I do baby! ha ha ha ha ha!
Yeah, love your fireworks, ain’t nothin’ like it
