Yas, Yas, Yas |
Mama bought a chicken, took it for a duck |
Thought it’d be layin' eggs, about eight, nine, ten |
Made it a nest outta some old straw and grass |
But it didn’t lay nothin' but its yass, yass, yass |
Mama bought a rooster, took it for a duck |
Set it on the table with its feet stickin' up |
Along came the children with a spoon and a glass |
Went to stirrin' up the gravy from its yass, yass, yass |
«Mama, mama, come look at sis |
Out in the backyard and dancin' like this» |
«Sister, sister, you come in here fast |
And quit that shakin' of your yass, yass, yass» |
She said, «Mama, all the young folks are doin' it these days, and the old folks |
too |
The young folks tellin' the old folks just what to do |
First you shake your shoulder and you shake it real fast |
And if you can’t shake your shoulder shake your yass, yass, yass |
Way up yonder on a mountain peak |
A bullfrog dipped his tail in a hot pan of grease |
He said, «Excuse me, ladies and gentlemen, would you kindly let me pass |
I’m a-slippin' and a-slidin' on my yass, yass, yass |
Way out in Texas, in Abilene |
A tomcat sat on a sewin' machine |
Well that sewin' machine, you know it sewed so fast |
It sewed ninety-nine stitches in his yass, yass, yass |
«Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house |
Not a creature was stirrin', not even a mouse |
Out by the chimney I thought I heard somethin' pass |
It was Santa Claus skiddin' on his yass, yass, yass |
