Papa Come Quick

Papa come quick, Jody's gone to the city

What we gonna do now that Jody's gone

She left a note on the TV and papa, it's a pity

What we gonna do now that Jody's goneWell mama's been cryin' in the kitchen since mornin'

She cried right through "As The World Turns"

I seen it myself and papa is a bitchin'

Let's haul ass before the baby gets burned[Chorus]

Gas up the old Ford, get out the road map

They got a head start, about a half a day

Load up the shotgun, put it in the gun rack

Jody's with Chico down in East L.A.Well it must've been a wild-eyed, silver-tongued schemer

A girl like a Jody, don't think for herself

Him and that Harley and his dang Jalapena

Smokin' that stuff will make you hurt yourselfPapa come quick

Papa come quick

Hey, papa come quick

Hey, papa come onWell mama's been cryin' in the kitchen since mornin'

She cried right through "As The World Turns"

I seen it myself and papa is a bitchin'

Let's haul ass before the baby gets burned[Chorus: x2]That boy ain't rightLet's go on down the road
