Hey Ricky (You're A Low Down Heel)
Hey Ricky (You're A Low Down Heel)

 

 



Hey sugar, where'd you get that sweet tooth

Where'd you get that swagger
Where'd you get off acting like Babe Ruth
When you look just like the others?

And you wouldn't know good silk stockings
From a cheap ol' pair of tights
You ain't so swell in your pinstripes
You ain't no tiger when there ain't no lights

You call me your latest conquest
As you belch money to the boys
But if your beer was the Sea of Cortez
You'd be drowning in the sound of your own voice

Hey Ricky, you're a low down heel
You're a minus zero on the scale of me
With your "What's up kid?" and your "Cool it, babes."
You're a worn-out fact on an ancient page
Hey Ricky, hey hey Ricky
Hey Ricky, you're a low down heel.

Oh lordie, where'd you buy them morals
Where's you get that Stetson
You come across a little short of urban
Ain't New York white boys, hardly redneck Texan

Say I really love them white bucks
Oh, did your battleship sink your rubber duck
And you, you wouldn't know what a lady was
Unless she came up and kicked you in the butt

As you turn the color of Khalua on a boat off the Florida Keys
I'll be messing up the sheets with someone else
While your Jello heart is adrift at sea

Hey Ricky, you're a low down heel
You're a minus zero on the scale of me
With your "What's up kid?" and your "Cool it, babes."
You're a worn-out fact on an ancient page
Hey Ricky, hey hey Ricky
Hey Ricky, you're a low down heel.
