I bought a car; a beauty It was s**y, it was neat It made me feel about ten feet tall To turn the ignition key I bought a brand new barbecue And I put it in my yard And every morning's mail Brought another credit card I am a Jones boy Try keepin' up with me I am a Jones boy No way to keep up with me I am a Jones boy Try keepin' up with me I am a Jones boy No way to keep up with me I bought myself Bermuda shorts I bought a Nehru coat I bought myself a turtleneck shirt I hung beads around my throat I'm right on the top of every trend There ain't nothing I can't dig Now wait until you catch me In my brand new Afro wig I am a Jones boy Try keepin' up with me I am a Jones boy No way to keep up with me I am a Jones boy Try keepin' up with me I am a Jones boy No way to keep up with me Now my refrigerator makes ice cubes And for just nine-hundred more It plays the hits in stereo When you open up the door My TV set is six feet high And it also dries my hair My telephone has a musical tone To tell you I ain't there And I am a Jones boy Try keepin' up with me I am a Jones boy No way to keep up with me I am a Jones boy Try keepin' up with me I am a Jones boy No way to keep up with me
