Lyrics
She asks me why
I’m just a hairy guy
I’m hairy noon and night
Hair that’s a fright
I’m hairy high and low
Don’t ask me why
Don’t know
It’s not for lack of bread
Like the Grateful Dead
Darling
Gimme head with hair
Long beautiful hair
Shining, gleaming
Streaming, flaxen, waxen
Give me down to there hair
Shoulder length or longer
Here, baby, there, mama
Everywhere, daddy, daddy
Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it Long as God can grow it My hair
Let it fly in the breeze
And get caught in the trees
Give a home to the fleas in my hair
A home for fleas
A hive for bees
A nest for birds
There ain’t no words
For the beauty, the splendor, the wonder
Of my…
Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it Long as God can grow it My hair
I want it long, straight, curly, fuzzy
Snaggy, shaggy, ratty, matty
Oily, greasy, fleecy
Shining, gleaming, streaming
Flaxen, waxen
Knotted, polka-dotted
Twisted, beaded, braided
Powdered, flowered, and confettied
Bangled, tangled, spangled, and spaghettied!
Oh say can you see
My eyes? If you can
Then my hair’s too short
Down to here
Down to there
I want my hair
Down to where
It stops by itself
They’ll be ga ga at the go go When they see me in my toga
My toga made of blond
Brilliantined
Biblical hair
My hair like Jesus wore it Hallelujah, I adore it Hallelujah, Mary loved her son
Why don’t my mother love me?
Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it Long as God can grow it My hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it Long as God can grow it My hair
My hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it Long as God can grow it My hair
