"Shoo Fly Marches On" lyrics

"Shoo Fly Marches On"

Shoo fly, got the marchin' on

Hangin' out here
In the middle of nowhere
With no place to go
And I got nothin' to do

Standin' on the corner
A bottle in my hand
Just a hootin' and a hollerin'
For the ice cream man
Hangin' out on the corner
A dollar in my hand
Just a dubbin' and a raisin'
A pan with an all white band

Don't you know it, that shoo fly
Shoo fly, you got the marchin' on
(Shoo fly, shoo fly)
Got the marchin' on
(Shoo fly, shoo fly)
Shoo fly
Shoo fly, you got the marchin' on
(Shoo fly, shoo fly)
Got the marchin' on
(Shoo fly, shoo fly)

You got me accused of peepin', baby
But I ain't never seen a thing
You got me accused of stealin', baby
But I ain't never raised my hand

What is that, you know it, shoo fly
Shoo fly, you got the marchin' on
(Shoo fly, shoo fly)
Got the marchin' on
(Shoo fly, shoo fly)

Don't you know it, shoo fly
Shoo fly, you got the marchin' on
(Shoo fly, shoo fly)
Got the marchin' on
(Shoo fly, shoo fly)

Got the marchin' on
(Shoo fly, shoo fly)

Keep rappin' strong 'til the break of dawn
Rappin' long 'til it turn you on
Listen at me close, my rap killin' hoes
With my feet to walk
With my tongue to talk
I'm gettin' tired of runnin' 'round
I guess I'll settle down
I get down, sit down
Buckin' in the ground

You know it, shoo fly
Shoo, shoo fly
(Shoo fly, shoo fly)
Got the marchin' on
(Shoo fly, shoo fly)
Know it, shoo fly
Shoo fly, you got the marchin' on
