Lyrics
Who drove the red sports car from the mansion
And laid upon the grass in summer time?
And who done me out, high time fashion
And made me read between the lines?
And who said, "Follow the mind
It's your only chance
Sit on your throne
You got to make it on your own
On your own"?
And who said, "Ha, ha, look at you, look at you
You got jam on your face"
And who did your homework and read your Bible
And signed your name every place?
And who said, "Fortunes untold
Don't go by gold
You're much better known
You got to make it on your own
On your own", ah, huh-huh
And do you remember, do you remember this time?
I said a long time ago
When I came walkin' down
I came walkin' down
By Maggie's place, ha-ha-ha
It started comin' on rain, huh
It started comin' on rain, yeah
'Cause I had nothing on but a shirt
And a pair of pants and I was getting wet
I was getting wet
Saturated, saturated, baby
And Maggie opened up the window
And Jane swung out her right arm
She said, "Hi" I said, "Hi
How're you doing, baby?"
She said, "Come on in out the rain
Come on in out the rain
Lord, come on in out the rain
Sit down by the fireside
And dry yourself"
Ah, achoo, do it, do it, a-ha-ha-ha
I got caught, I got caught
And I got, got a bag, got a bag, baby
Oh, Lord
I said, "I don't mind if I do
I don't mind if I do"
