2. My life's a shadowless horse 4. Upon a savage lake
If I can't get a across Make no mistake
To you I love you
In the alligator rain I got a powder keg leg
My heart's all pain And my wig's all pooped
For you For you
3. Girl, you're good 5. With my hat in my hand
And I've got wild knees I'm a hungry man
For you For you
On a mountain range I got stars in my beard
I'm Doctor Strange And I feel real weird
For you For you
6. Beneath the be-bop moon
I'm howling like a loon
For you
Beneath the mambo sun
I got to be the one
For you
