I'm gettin' ready here I go Well now some time later I met another sweet tater I said honey I'm a hog about you Just as I was gettin' bolder felt a hand on my shoulder Turned around and he was six-foot two He said I don't think ya oughta cause this here is my daughter And there's one more thing son you might know That if you ain't quicker than my big frog sticker Then that's gonna be all she wrote I said son I'm a red hot picker I'm a six string tickler I'm a finger pickin' whadda ya know I'm a buffalo nickel a solid dill pickle Stand back cause here I go
