I paid fifteen million dollars, twelve hundred and seventy-two cents

I paid one thousand, two hundred twenty-seven dollars and fifty-five cents

To see my bulldog bite a rabbit

And my hound dog's just sittin' on a barbed-wire fence

Well, my temperature rises and my feet can't walk so hot

Yes, my temperature rises and my feet can't walk so hot

Well, this Arabian doctor comes in, gives me a shot

But wouldn't tell me if what it is I've got

Well, this woman I've got, she's killing me alive

Yes, this woman I've got, she's killing me alive

She's makin' me into an old man

And man, I'm not even twenty-five

Of course, you're gonna think this song is a riff

I know you're gonna think this song is just a riff

Unless you've been inside a tunnel

And fell down sixty nine, seventy feet over a barbed-wire fence
