| While walkin' through the woods not far from town
|
| I got real shook, I heard the strangest sound
|
| I saw the Purple People Eater and to my surprise
|
| The Witch Doctor sittin' by his side
|
| The Witch Doctor had a little guitar in his hand
|
| And they were boppin' and a-rockin' with a two-piece band
|
| Purple was a-blowin' like a People Eater should
|
| Witch Doctor picked like Johnny B. Good
|
| There went-a
|
| Ooh-ee
|
| Ooh-ah-ah
|
| Ting-tang
|
| Walla-walla-ding-dang
|
| «Oh, Doc I got troubles» that’s a-what he said
|
| «Girls keep a-laughin' 'bout the horn in my head»
|
| The Witch Doctor smiled and I heard him say
|
| «Yeah man, ya ugly but you sure can play»
|
| There in the moonlight it seemed so strange
|
| As they blowed a chorus of «Home On The Range»
|
| They were comin' in strong like a rock 'n' roll stars
|
| Made the sweetest music a-this side of Mars
|
| They went-a
|
| Ooh-ee
|
| Ting-tang
|
| Ooh-ah-ah
|
| Walla-walla-ding-dang
|
| These cats from outer space were givin' their all
|
| And I could tell the way they rocked that they were havin' a ball
|
| They were comin' on strong, I was clappin' my hands
|
| Stopped long enough to say «Crazy, man!»
|
| So at twilight time when the sun go down
|
| Back in the woods on the edge of town
|
| People all a-gather from a-miles around
|
| To hear Doc and ol' Purple play the crazy sounds
|
| They go
|
| Ooh-ee (Oh yeah)
|
| Ooh-ah-ah
|
| Ting-tang
|
| Walla-walla-ding-dang
|
| One more time
|
| And your sick, sick, sick set
|
| Ha ha ha ha ha ha
|
| Woo hoo hoo hoo
|
| Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha |
