Shake That Bush Again (Album Version)

Lookin' for some shelter

Lookin' for some peace

The fire in the furnace

Been burnin' like the beast

My pants have all been pressed

All my collars neatly creased

My ride bummin' thumb is up

Cause now the hounds have been released

Cloud around my head

Leaves beneath my feet

Fever in my fingertips

And grease between my teeth

Shakin' when I wake up

Keep a heavin' just to breathe

Chubby cherub up above me

Heathen fiend asleep beneath

I dont know where Im goin'

Only where I been

Shake that bush again

Leavin' in the evenin'

Good girl don't you grieve

But babe while I'm away

You keep ya secrets safe for me

Oh do you need the proof

Or mama do you just believe?

Or do you shake the hand of

Man With Evil Up His Sleeve?

Can ya understand

Stand behind your man

Might not always do right

But he do just what he can

Can't tell where he'll wind up

When he come around the bend

But you bet when he get there

Gonna shake that bush again

Shake it baby

Man is just a man

He can leave it he can take it

But baby shake that tail just like a rattlesnake can shake it

Ignominious decision but somebody got to make it

Lord I know I made a promise but Im gonna have to break it

Lookin' for some shelter

Lookin' for some peace

The fire in the furnace

Is burnin' like the beast

Yes Im headed West when the weary leave the East

There's a new broom near my tombstone

Sweep it clean for the deceased
