Uncle Remus
Whoa, are we moving too slow?
Have you seen us, Uncle Remus?
We look pretty sharp in these clothes
Unless we get sprayed with a hose
You know, it ain't bad in the day
'Less they squirt it your way
Unless it's in the winter when it's froze
And it's hard if it hits on your nose
Just keep your nose (keep your nose)
To the grindstone they say (grindstone they say)
Well, they say it will redeem us, Lord, Uncle Remus
I can't wait (Well) til my fro is full grown (Fro is full grown)
And y'all can throw your du-rags away at home (du-rags at home)
I'll take a drive to (Be-ver-ly Hills)
Beverly Hills (just before dawn) just before dawn
And knock those little jockeys off the rich people's lawn
And before they get up I'll be gone, I'll be gone
And before they get up we can be gone, we can be gone
And before they get up we'll be gone, begone, we'll be gone
And before they get up we'll be gone
Have you seen us, Uncle Remus?
We look pretty sharp in these clothes
Unless we get sprayed with a hose
You know, it ain't bad in the day
'Less they squirt it your way
Unless it's in the winter when it's froze
And it's hard if it hits on your nose
Just keep your nose (keep your nose)
To the grindstone they say (grindstone they say)
Well, they say it will redeem us, Lord, Uncle Remus
I can't wait (Well) til my fro is full grown (Fro is full grown)
And y'all can throw your du-rags away at home (du-rags at home)
I'll take a drive to (Be-ver-ly Hills)
Beverly Hills (just before dawn) just before dawn
And knock those little jockeys off the rich people's lawn
And before they get up I'll be gone, I'll be gone
And before they get up we can be gone, we can be gone
And before they get up we'll be gone, begone, we'll be gone
And before they get up we'll be gone
