Lyrics

Rag, mama, rag, I can't believe it's true Rag, mama, rag, what did you do? I crawled up to the railroad track Let the 4:19 scratch my back Sag, mama, sag, now what's come over you? Rag, mama, rag, I'm a pulling out your gag Gonna turn you lose like an old caboose Got a tail I need to drag I ask about your turtle And you ask about the weather Well, I can't jump the hurdle and we can't get together We could be relaxing In my sleeping bag But all you wanna do for me, mama is- Rag, mama, rag, there's nowhere to go Rag, mama, rag, come on risin' up the bow Rag, mama, rag, where do you roam? Rag, mama, rag, bring your skinny, little body back home It's dog eat dog and cat eat mouse You can rag, mama, rag, all over my house Hailstones beatin' on the roof The bourbon is a hundred proof It's you and me and the telephone Our destiny is quite well known We don't need to sit and brag All we gotta do is rag, mama, rag, mama, rag Rag, mama, rag, where do you roam? Rag, mama, rag, bring your skinny, little body back home
