"The Joker" lyrics

"The Joker"
(originally by Steve Miller Band)

Some people call me the space cowboy, yeah
Some call me the gangster of love
Some people call me Maurice
'Cause I speak of the pompatus of love
People talk about me, babe
They say I'm doin' you wrong, doin' you wrong
Well, don't you worry, baby, don't worry
'Cause I'm right here, right here, right here, right here at home

'Cause I'm a picker
I'm a grinner
I'm a lover
And I'm a sinner
I play my music in the sun, whoa
I'm a joker
I'm a smoker
I'm a midnight toker
I sure don't want to hurt no one, no

I'm a picker
I'm a grinner
I'm a lover
And I'm a sinner
I play my music in the sun, whoa
I'm a joker
I'm a smoker
I'm a midnight toker
I get my lovin' on the run, whoa
Whoo-ooh-ooh
Whoa, whoo-ooh-ooh

You're the cutest thing that I ever did see
I really love your peaches, wanna shake your tree
Lovey dovey, lovey dovey, lovey dovey all the time
Ooh wee baby, I'll sure show you a good time

'Cause I'm a picker
I'm a grinner
I'm a lover
And I'm a sinner
I play my music in the sun, whoa
I'm a joker
I'm a smoker
I'm a midnight toker
I get my lovin' on the run, whoa

I'm a picker
I'm a grinner
I'm a lover
And I'm a sinner
I play my music in the sun, whoa
I'm a joker
I'm a smoker
I'm a midnight toker
I sure don't want to hurt no one, no
Whoo-ooh-ooh
No, whoo-ooh-ooh

People keep talkin' about me, baby
They say I'm doing you wrong
Don't you worry, don't worry, no don't worry mama
'Cause I'm right here, I'm right here at home

You're the cutest thing I ever did see
I really love your peaches, wanna shake your tree
Lovey dovey, lovey dovey, lovey dovey all the time
Come on baby now, I'll show you a good time

Woo
These rock songs were long in the seventies, right?
(Hed) p.e. rocking the seventies, yeah?
With the AM radio
Oldsmobile
Now, before we go
Let's pick this one up
We'll see y'all next year

I'm a picker
I'm a grinner
I'm a lover
And I'm a sinner
I play my music in the sun, whoa
I'm a joker
I'm a smoker
I'm a midnight toker
I get my lovin' on the run, whoa

I'm a picker
I'm a grinner
I'm a lover
And I'm a sinner
I play my music in the sun, whoa
I'm a joker
I'm a smoker
I'm a midnight toker
I sure don't want to hurt no one, no
No one, no

It's over five minutes, my dude
