Now listen here all you women,every time you want to be wooed,
Yes, listen here all you women,every time you want to be wooed,
Take your man down to the nearest juice joint and get him nice and stewed!

Yes, when he starts to get high, and his eyes start to turnin' red,
Now when he gets high, and his eyes start to turnin' red,
You'd better hurry him home before wrong ideas start runnin' through his head!

Keep callin' him daddy and makin' him stop,
Between you and this joy juice that square will blow his top!
Makes no difference if your daddy be young or bald,
Yes, he's a better Casanova when he's drinkin' alcohol!
