about

From the album Stranded In Babylon but with the final chord removed

lyrics

​​​Going to Corpus to see grandpa Joe
Get me a haircut, eat at The Chilli Bowl
Sneak out the back door with a fishing pole

Me and my sister and my brother too
We sing in the desert like the coyotes do
Accidental touring in the human zoo
Ow ow ow

Naughty Nina played the eighty-eights
Never had no trouble getting the dates
Believe she's gonna surprise us at the pearly gates

Don't mock the albino, respect the octoroon
Our skin be like porcelain, pale as the moon
We dance the dysfunct hucklebuck but gonna rewrite the tune

Going up to Charlestown, I'm gonna see my ma
Feet up on the ottoman with my old pa
Then head for the kitchen, we'll sit around and jaw
Over skillet cornbread we discuss the law
Black-eyed peas, collard greens
Rochambeau, time to go
