His name is stevie vai
And he's a crazy guy
Last november, i recall,
He needed a spanking

He decided then
A female specimen
Would be excitin' for a night
To give him a spanking

Laurel was her name
She came to notre dame
He told me just the other day
He oughta be thanking
Her for the spanking

She was large and soft
And she beat him off
Made him drool upon his dork
And gave him a wanking
After the spanking

Hair brush!
Oh! what a hair brush!
(its not that he requires grooming!
Guys with light blue hair never do!)

Then she did explain:
There's another game
That we can play with this device,
And then a banana!

It was slightly green
Vapors in between
Rising up to fill the room
And cook the banana

She said it was dry
Stevie won't you try
To drool a little drool on it
And grease the banana

Later in the dawn
Laurel carried on
She got right up and dressed herself and
Ate the banana

I'm crying,
I'm crying,
Crying for sharleena.
Don't you know?

I called up all my baby's friends
And asked them,
Where she done went.
But nobody around here seems to know,
Where my sharleena has been.
Where my sharleena has been.

I'm crying,
I'm crying,
Crying for sharleena.
Can't you see?

I called up all my baby's friends
And asked them,
Where she done went.
But nobody around here seems to know,
Where my sharleena has been.
Where my sharleena has been.

Ten long years i been lovin' her.
Ten long years and i thought deep down in my heart she was mine.
Ten long years i beloved her.
Ten long years and i would call her my baby.
And now, i'm always crying.

Ugh!
Ugh!

I would be so delighted.
I would be so delighted.
If they would just
Send her on home to me.

I would be so delighted.
I would be so delighted.
If they would just
Send her on home to me.

Send my baby home to me!
Send my baby home to me!
Send my baby home.
Send my baby home to me!

Truck driver divorce!
It's very sad
(steel guitars
Usually weep all over it)

The bold & intelligent
Masters of the road
With their secret language,
And the giant
Over-sized
Mechanical
Trans-continental
Hobby-horse!

Truck driver divorce!
It's very sad!
Oh the wife!
Oh the kids!
Oh the waitress!
Oh the drive all night!

Sometimes when you get home
Some ugly lookin' son-of-a-bitch
Is trying to pooch yer
Home-town sweetheart!

Oh, go ride the bull!
Oh, go ride the bull!
Make it go up 'n down
'n when you fall off,
You can eat the mattress!

Truck driver divorce!
It's very sad!
Bust yer ass
To deliver some string beans,
Deliver some string beans,
Deliver some string beans,
To
Utah!

We're playin' in a tent
It's payin' the rent
If you pooch a civilian,
It's a mayor event
In france
Way down in france
Way on down
Way on down
In france

The girls is all salty
The boys is all sweet
The food ain't too shabby,
An' they piss in the street
In france
Way down in france
Way on down
Way on down
In france

They got diseases
Like you never seen
Got a mystery blow-job
Turn your peter green
In france
Way down in france
Way on down
Way on down
In france

They got some coffee,
Eatin' right through the cup,
An' when they go ka-ka
They make you stand up
In france
Way down in france
Way on down
Way on down
In france

If you're not careful,
It'll stick to your cheeks
You'll smell like a native
For a couple of weeks
In france
Way down in france
Way on down
Way on down
In france

We cannot wait
Till we go back
It gets so exciting
When the poodles 'react'
In france
Way down in france
Way on down
Way on down
In france

Never try to get yo' peter sucked
In france

The closer you are
The brighter the stars in the sky
And darling,
I realize
That you're the one in my life
Oh oh

My heart skips a beat
Every time
You and i meet
My life, my love, my dear
I can't defeat
This yearning deep in my heart
To have only you

When i first saw you,
I did adore you,
And all your loving ways
But then you went away,
But now you're back to stay,
And my love for you grows stronger every
Day-ahhh way-ahhh way

The closer you are,
The brigher the flames in my heart,
And darling,
We'll never part
We'll always be in love
