Call on your neighbors to put down their labors And come and play the hardware in time Cause the doctor said give him jug band music It seems to make him feel just fine I was floatin' in the ocean Greased withsuntan lotion When i got wiped out by a beach boy He was surfin' when he hit me but jumped off his board to get me And he dragged me by the armpit like a child's toy As we staggerd into land with all the waitors eatn' sandwitches We tried to mooch a towl from the harpoloy He emptied out his eardrums; i emptied out mine And everybody knows that the very last line is The doctor said give him jug band music It seems to make him feel just fine And the doctor said give him jug band music It seems to make him feel just fine.
