she asks him why
why i’m a hairy guy
i’m hairy noon and nightynight night
my hair is a fright
i’m hairy high and low
but don’t ask me why
’cause he don’t know
it’s not for lack of bread
like the grateful dead
darling
gimme a head with hair
long beautiful hair
shining gleaming
streaming flaxen waxen
give me down to there
shoulder length or longer hair
here baby there mama
everywhere daddy daddy
hair hair hair hair
grow it show it
long as i can grow it
my hair
i let it fly in the breeze
and get caught in the trees
give a home for the fleas in my hair
a home for fleas
a hive for the buzzin’ bees
a nest for birds
there ain’t no words
for the beauty the splendor the wonder
of my
hair hair hair hair
grow it show it
long as i can grow it
my hair
i want it long straight curly fuzzy
snaggy shaggy ratsy matsy
oily greasy fleecy
shining gleaming streaming
flaxen waxen
knotted polkadotted
twisted beaded braided
powdered flowered and confettied
bangled tangled spangled and spaghettied
oh say can you see
my eyes if you can
then my hair’s too short
down to here
down to there
down to there
down to where
it stops by itself
don’t never have to cut it
’cause it stops by itself
oh give me a head with hair
long beautiful hair
shining gleaming
streaming flaxen waxen
won’t you gimme it down to there hair
shoulder length or longer hair
here baby there mama
everywhere daddy daddy
hair hair hair hair
grow it
show it
long as i can grow it
my hair hair hair hair
grow it
show it
long as i can grow it
my hair hair hair hair hair hair hair hair hair hair
