Drummin' man, he's a drummin' man
No one kicks a set of drums just like he can
All about biology, he knows not a thing
The way he swings out on those drumes
You know he's really keen

Drummin' man, he's a drummin' man
He's a wow, if you know what I mean
See that man sittin' on that stool
He's a cowhide kickin' fool
Swing it Mister Gene
