[MALE SOLOIST (JIMMY GRISSOM)]
Workin' hard to buy my gal the biggest house in town
Working hard to buy my gal the biggest house in town
'Cause she's swings like crazy
And she sure has got that sound
Working hard at the policy wheel to buy my gal the biggest house in town
Working and writing numbers to buy my gal the biggest house in town
If she don't marry me
I'll burn it down to the ground
