Yeehaw Yeehaw
Al' little carob leaf ground
in the mortar it gets to my head,
yeehaw like it's a hat
It's late my dear,
it's late my dear
the carnival moon comes galloping,
yeehaw and the little chichi ripens
I would like you, my dear
but your owner is watching
throw a handful of sleep on him,
yeehaw let him have fun sleeping
Last night and all
the night almost killed me with laughter
I dreamt that I put on,
yeehaw pants, petticoat, and shirt
I don't know what dreams
I have myself
they make me sad I go
to sleep in my bed,
yeehaw and wake up in a stranger's bed.
Now I'm really in mourning
tiny red tie
because my mother-in-law has died,
yeehaw that damn old lady
