Hippy Gumbo Songtext
von John’s Children

Met a man, he was nice
Said his name was paradise
Didn′t realize at the time
That his face and mind were mine

Give me the fall, he no good
Chop him up for firewood


It seemed good and it seemed right
That I should dig him all the night
But in the morning with the sun
He would pull down a dramatic gun
He blew my soul, he blew my brain
He said I could not do the same

Give me the fall, he no good
Chop him up for firewood

Give me the fall, he no good
Chop him up and burn the wood
