Lyrics

I said, hey look over yonder looks like a cowpie in the yard
I said, hey look over yonder looks like a cowpie in the yard, in the yard
I'm livin' up here in Wauwatosa looks like the time is gettin' hard

Now if I lived in Brownsville I would not give that turd a wink
If I lived in Brown' I would not give that turd a wink, turd a wink
But livin' up here in Wisconsin
I can't tolerate the stink, but that's alright

You know I love you darlin' and you know I think you're sweet
You know I love you darlin' and you know I think you're sweet, think you're sweet
Would you do one thing for me baby
Flip that 'pie out in the street

So I went down to the city hall that's where the city council meets
I went down to the city hall that's where the city council meets on 76th street
I said, hey there Mrs. Mayor
What can I can I do with all these sheets, she said, aw, aw, aw

Now if I go to heaven I'm gonna stand by Saint Peters chair
If I'm lucky when I die and go to heaven I'm gonna stand by Saint Peters chair
Firsted thing I say to Saint Peter, hope you ain't got any cowpies up over there
Up over there
Up over there
Up over there.......................so fine
