Lyrics:

(Hey, pretty boy, I'll tell you... That's the way to do)

Asked to drink water, she brought gasoline
Now listen to me, ya doin' me mighty mean
I'll tell ya, that's no way to do

Talk about your girl, boy, you ought to see mine
Ain't so pretty, but she sure do dress fine
That's the way to do

Talk about your gal, oughta see mine
She's the sweetest gal in town
I'll tell ya, that's the way to do

Hey, hey Pretty thing
Hey Pretty thing
I'll tell you, that's the way to do

Music man, ain't it grand?
Play that thing, boy, as long as you can
I'll tell ya, that's the way to do

Begged for water, she brings gasoline
Now let me tell you, ain't that mean?
I'll tell ya, that's no way to do

Hey, hey Pretty thing, boy

Talk about your brown, you oughta see mine
Ain't so pretty, but she's th' sweetest in town
I'll tell ya, now that's the way to do

Hey, hey, music man
I'll tell ya that sure is grand
I'll tell ya now, that's the way to do

When ya beg for water, they bring gasoline
Let me tell ya, that ain't doin' me mean

Hey, hey Pretty thing
Hey, hey
I'll tell ya, that's no way to do

See ya talk about your'n, but you oughta see mine
Ain't so pretty but she sure do dress fine
Now let me tell you, that ain't no way to do
