Say man, don't walk ahead of that woman
Like she don't belong to you
Just 'cause hers got them little skinny legs
You know that ain't no way to do
You didn't act like that when you had it home
Behind closed doors, alright
Now you act like you're ashamed at a woman
Or you don't want nobody to know she's your's
But that's alright, you just walk on baby
And don't you worry about a doggone thing at all
Because there's some man, somewhere
Who'll take you baby, skinny legs and all
Now, who'll take the woman with the skinny legs?
C'mon somebody please take the lady with the skinny legs
Now, you all know the lady with the skinny legs
Got to have somebody too, now
Will somebody please take the lady
With the skinny legs, please?
"Hey Joe", "Yeah bobby?
"Why don't you take her?", "You a fool?
I don't want no woman with no skinny legs"
Look here, I thought I might give this woman to Clyde
But, no, 'cause I know the kinda woman Clyde likes
So Leroy'll take her, say Leroy? You got her
Say, miss, right here
Now why you wanna act like that man ain't yours?
Just 'cause he's walkin' with you, with them raggedy clothes
Man, just forgot to get his suit out a the cleaners, that's all
Alright, alright
Act like that man don't belong to ya
Go on over there and kiss him and hold his hand
Say you ain't gonna do what?
That's alright, you just walk on mister
And don't you worry about a doggone thing at all
Because there's some woman somewhere
Who'll take you, Mr. Raggedy clothes and all
