Lyrics

[Verse 1] Lord if I was the devil I'd put a curse on you Lord if I was the devil I'd put a curse on you Lord if I was an angel Lord I'd curse you too [Verse 2] Well I'm gonna buy a Chevy And a new black Ford Yeah I'm gonna buy a Chevy And a new black Ford Yeah I'm gonna drop an engine On my baby's front door [Verse 3] Yeah well I invented Asia Filled the Sea of Japan Yeah well I invented Asia Filled the Sea of Japan Sold Egypt to the kaiser Crowned the Shah of Iran - hey! [Verse 4] Well the rooster crows at midnight Wolf howls at noon Well the rooster crows at midnight Wolf howls at noon Smoke rising from the mountains Earthquakes on the moon [Verse 5] She took a hatchet from the window Cut her long yellow hair She took a hatchet from the window Cut her long yellow hair Lord I miss my baby She gone off somewhere [Verse 6] Well the straight man's crazy And the drunk man's sane Well the straight man's crazy And the drunk man's sane Dreaming in a bed of cotton On a Saigon train - hey!
