New Dirty Dozen |
| Come all you folks and start to walk, I’m fixing to start my dozen talk |
| What you’re thinking about ain’t on my mind, that stuff you got is the sorriest |
| kind |
| Now you’re a sorry mistreater, robber and a cheater |
| Slip you in the dozens, your papa and your cousin |
| Your mama do the lordy lord |
| Come all of you women’s outta be in the can, out on the corner stopping every |
| man, |
| Hollering «Soap is a nickel and the towel is free, I’m pigmeat, pappy, |
| now who wants me?» |
| You’s a old mistreater, robber and a cheater |
| Slip you in the dozens, your papa and your cousin |
| Your mama do the lordy lord |
| Now the funniest thing I ever seen, tom cat jumping on a sewing machine |
| Sewing machine run so fast, took 99 stitches in his yas, yas, yas |
| Now he’s a cruel mistreater, robber and a cheater |
| Slip you in the dozens, your papa and your cousin |
| Your mama do the lordy lord |
| Now I’m gonna tell you all about old man Bell, he can’t see but he sure can |
| smell |
| Fish-man passed here the other day, hollering «Hey, pretty mama, |
| I’m going your way» |
| I know all about your pappy and your mammy, |
| Your big fat sister and your little brother Sammy, |
| Your auntie and your uncle and your ma’s and pa’s, |
| They all got drunk and showed their Santa Claus |
| Now they’re all drunken mistreaters, robbers and a cheaters |
| Slip you in the dozens, your papa and your cousin |
| Your mama do the lordy lord |
