The Purple People Eater Meets The Witch Doctor
While walkin' through the woods not far from town
I got real shook, I heard the strangest sound
I saw the Purple People Eater and to my surprise
The Witch Doctor sittin' by his side
The Witch Doctor had a little guitar in his hand
And they were boppin' and a-rockin' with a two-piece band
Purple was a-blowin' like a People Eater should
Witch Doctor picked like Johnny B. Good
There went-a
Ooh-ee
Ooh-ah-ah
Ting-tang
Walla-walla-ding-dang
"Oh, Doc I got troubles" that's a-what he said
"Girls keep a-laughin' 'bout the horn in my head"
The Witch Doctor smiled and I heard him say
"Yeah man, ya ugly but you sure can play"
There in the moonlight it seemed so strange
As they blowed a chorus of "Home On The Range"
They were comin' in strong like a rock 'n' roll stars
Made the sweetest music a-this side of Mars
They went-a
Ooh-ee
Ting-tang
Ooh-ah-ah
Walla-walla-ding-dang
These cats from outer space were givin' their all
And I could tell the way they rocked that they were havin' a ball
They were comin' on strong, I was clappin' my hands
Stopped long enough to say "Crazy, man!"
So at twilight time when the sun go down
Back in the woods on the edge of town
People all a-gather from a-miles around
To hear Doc and ol' Purple play the crazy sounds
They go
Ooh-ee (Oh yeah)
Ooh-ah-ah
Ting-tang
Walla-walla-ding-dang
One more time
And your sick, sick, sick set
Ha ha ha ha ha ha
Woo hoo hoo hoo
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
I got real shook, I heard the strangest sound
I saw the Purple People Eater and to my surprise
The Witch Doctor sittin' by his side
The Witch Doctor had a little guitar in his hand
And they were boppin' and a-rockin' with a two-piece band
Purple was a-blowin' like a People Eater should
Witch Doctor picked like Johnny B. Good
There went-a
Ooh-ee
Ooh-ah-ah
