Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Some people call me the space cowboy
Some people call me the gangster of love, yeah
And some people walkin' round callin' me Maurice (Maurice?)
'Cause I speak of the pompatus of love
[Verse 2]
People talk about me, baby
(Talk about me bad too)
They say I'm doin' you wrong
Doin' you wrong, doin' you wrong
Well, don't let that worry you baby (Oh baby bubba)
'Cause I'm right here, right here, right here, right here at home
(Everybody sing along)
[Verse 3]
'Cause I'm a picker
I'm a grinner
I'm a lover
And I'm a sinner
I play my music in the sun
[Verse 4]
I'm a Joker
I'm a smoker
I'm a midnight toker
I give my lovin' on the run
[Verse 5]
Come on and follow me
You know I really want you for your company
Even though I'm attached to you physically
My computer mechanism wants you mentally
You know I really want you for your company
[Verse 6]
You're the cutest thing that I ever did see
I really love your peaches, I want to shake your tree
Lovey-dovey, dovey, lovey-dovey all the time
Ooh-eee baby, I'm gonna show you a good time, baby
[Verse 7]
'Cause I'm a picker
I'm a grinner
I'm a lover
And I'm a sinner
I play my music in the sun
[Verse 8]
I'm a Joker
I'm a smoker
I'm a midnight toker
I sure don't want to hurt no one
[Verse 9]
(The Joker is wild)
(You know he's got a lot of style)
(And he swept me off my feet)
(You know he's gotta be the freak of the week)
(The Joker is wild)
[Verse 10]
People keep talkin' 'bout me like a low-down dog (Like a low-life dog)
They say I'm doin' ya wrong, doin' ya wrong (D-D-D-Doin' ya wrong)
Well, don't ya know, don't ya worry 'bout a thing, pretty mama
Because I'm right here, right here, right here singin' along
[Verse 11]
You're the cutest thing that I ever did see
And I really love your peaches, woman, come shake for me
Lovey-dovey, lovey-dovey all the time
So dance on over here, mama, and ah let's have a good time
That's what I'm talkin' about
[Verse 12]
'Cause I'm a picker
I'm a grinner
I'm a lover
And I'm a sinner
I play my music in the sun
[Verse 13]
I'm a Joker
I'm a smoker
And I'm a fo' shizzle dizzle my nizzle fizzle bizzle
I give all of my lovin' while I'm on the run
[Verse 14]
(The Joker is wild)
(And you know he's got a lotta style)
(And he swept me off my feet)
(You know he's gotta be the freak of the week)
[Verse 15]
Come on and follow me
You know I really want you for your company
Even though I'm attached to you physically
My computer mechanism wants you mentally
You know I really want you for your company
My computer mechanism wants you mentally
[Verse 16]
Yeah, the Joker's wild
I'm takin' back my style (He's gettin' wild)
Yeah, get off my cloud, baby
He's throwin' down knee-deep
I guess I'll be the freak of the week
I guess you'll be the freak of the week
(Joker, he's wild)
(The Joker is wild)
