Wo, are we movin` too slow?
Have you seen us,
Uncle Remus . . .
We look pretty sharp in these clothes (yes, we do)
Unless we get sprayed with a hose
It ain`t bad in the day
If they squirt it your way
`Cept in the winter, when it`s froze
An` it`s hard if it hits
On yer nose
On yer nose
Just keep yer nose
To the grindstone, they say
Will that redeem us,
Uncle Remus . . .
I can`t wait till my Fro is full-grown
I`ll just throw `way my Doo-Rag at home
I`ll take a drive to BEVERLY HILLS
Just before dawn
An` knock the little jockeys
Off the rich people`s lawn
An` before they get up
I`ll be gone, I`ll be gone
Before they get up
I`ll be knocking the jockeys off the lawn
Down in the dew
