BISHOP DANCED
Bishop danced with a thumbscrew woman
Did a double-quick back flip and slid across the floor
The Catholic traffic flowed freely cross the river
And fiddlestick fiddled quick out the front door
Oh baby dumpling, mamas in the back tree
If the bow breaks mama might fall
Little sad and only, baby dont be lonely
Mama knows rithmatic, knows how to take a fall
Mama knows rithmatic, knows how to take a fall
CHORUS
And the kids are crying "Flapjacks, makeem fat, early in the mornin
Little Jack, grab your hat, hear the breakfast call
Muskrat, bat a cat, kick him in the fireplace
Theres someone in the kitchen blowing "Dinah" on their horn
Theres someone in the kitchen blowing "Dinah" like theyre born
Well maverick daddy got one-eyed bridge
She glides like a monkey-mule kicking on the back slide
Over hill, over hill, daddy dont you spill now
Papa got a switch stick, hes pumping little Bill
Papa got a switch stick, hes pumping little Bill
And Billy, hes crying "Tomahawk, tomahawk, daddy better duck now"
The Mohawks, the Mohawks, theyre still out there in the woods
Monatuk, Ocanuk, runnin through my dreams now
With fire on their fingertips and indian screams
With fire on their fingertips and feathers made of moonbeams
Well early in the morning the cannoneer cried
"I seen the sailors warning in the western sky"
Well mountain man, if you can, cut me down a fir tree
Branches full of candlesticks for baby and me
And my darling cried, she said "Honey, the weathervane
lately its been pointing the way to heaven
Scatterbrains, scatterbrains, watch out where you fall
Champagne, champagne, a round for all the old choir boys
Theyre busting off the altar chasing Dinah through the hall
Theyre bustin off the altar chasing Dinah through the hall
