Now, I've got a gal

Shaped like a frog

Her voice remind me

Of an old bulldog

Her hair looks just like

A chinchill-ie coat

An man if you get close

Up to that woman

She smells like a goat

She got b.o.

She keeps b.o all the time

And she thinks soap and water

Woo, Lord, Lord, is a doggone crime

Her ears, is so long

Her nose, is so fat

Her head, is so big

She can't even wear a hat

Her dogs is swolled

An she got one eye

Man, she looks like a wreck

That happened last July

Man, ain't she ugly?

She got b.o. all the time

Man, that woman thinks soap an water

Man, is a doggone crime

She must-a have been

Her mother's only child

She should-a been a gorilla

'Cause she sho' is wild

She got ways like a monkey

Sly as a fox

She should-a been on some chain gang

Man, breakin' up rocks

Man, ain't she ugly?

An she keeps b.o. all the time

Man, that woman thinks soap an water

Hoo, Lord, Lord, is a doggone crime

Her legs look like needles

An she ain't got no chin

She's a beautiful woman

For the shape she's in

Her feets look like wings

Way out on a limb

That's just why her mother

Put her off on him!

Man, ain't she ugly?

An she keeps b.o. all the time

Man, she thinks soap an water

Woo! Lord, Lord, is a doggone crime.
