'Long Come a Viper

Daniel Hicks

I'm standing on the corner with my feet in my shoes
Racking my brains how to pay my dues
My jug is empty of my number one booze
Along comes a viper and I blow my blues

I got the elation, hesitation, dissipation, coagulation
Relation, angzation, emancipation, propagation
Moppin', soppin', talk about your coppin' blues!
It's never too late to be up to date
You can get it now but you'll have to wait

Along comes a chick, comes a little dolly
She's out waling her big fat collie
"Golly," Miss Molly says, "you're looking might jolly!"
"There ain't none left but I'm really mighty solly"

I got the outerspace, what a race, dropped an ace
In my face, a goose-chase, you wanna taste
Match it, scratch it, stretch it, catch it blues!

It's never too late to be up to date
You can get it now but you'll have to wait
Just because she made them googly eyes
I thought I'd won home and copped a prize, uh-huh

Uh-huh
Wee-oo, wee-oo, wee-oo, wee-oo
Wee-oo, wee-oo, wee-oo, wee-oo
Wee-oo, wee-oo, wee-oo, wee-oo

The way I'm talking it might be a sin
But if it's cool, think I'll try again
Want a little, just hit me with a fin
It'll blow your mind so you won't know where you been

I got the elation, hesitation, dissipation, coagulation,
Relation, angzation, emancipation propagation,
Moppin', soppin', talk about your coppin'
Outer space, what a race, dropped an ace in my face
A goose-chase, you wanna taste, match it, scratch it, stretch it, catch it blues

It's never too late to be up to date
You can get it now but you'll have to wait
Just because she made them googly eyes
I thought I'd won a home and copped a prize, uh-huh

Uh-huh
Wee-oo, wee-oo, wee-oo, wee-oo
Wee-oo, wee-oo, wee-oo, wee-oo
Wee-oo, wee-oo, wee-oo, wee-oo
