Choo-choo Charlie had a plenty good band but he couldn't understand why no

one would go

A world record players on a tour of Japan, Charlie fixin' his van with the

left arm tan

He said

Monday, I'm all high, get me out of FLA

In school, yeah, I fooled ya, now I know I made a mistake

Blister on a turnpike, let me by, I only wanna wonder why when I don't die

Ewww, I shot ya, yeah, I know, I only wanna go where my wheels roll

Monday, I'm all high, get me out of FLA

I fooled ya, in school yeah, now I know I made a mistake

Everybody's wonderin', "where he'd go?" He must be down in Pensacola

hidin' from the snow

The world record players on a tour of Japan, Charlie's fixin' his van,

he's waitin' for a postcard

And he said

Monday, I'm all high, get me out of TLA

Well, I cut class, in school yeah, now I know I made a mistake

I made a big mistake

Alright
