Whoa, are we moving too slow?

Have you seen us, uncle remus?

We look pretty sharp in these clothes

(yes, we do)

Unless we get sprayed with a hose

It ain't bad in the day

If they squirt it your way

'cept in the wintah, when it's froze

And it's hard if it hits, on your nose

(on your nose)



Just keep your nose

To the grindstone they say

Will that redeem us, uncle reemus?

I can't wait til mah 'fro is full grown

I'll just throw away my doo-rag at home



I'll take a drive to

Beverly hills

Just before dawn

And knock the little jockeys

Off the rich peoples lawn

And before they get up

I'll be gone

(i'll be gone)

Before they get up

I'll be knockin' the jockeys off the lawn

(down in the dew)
