Cast Iron Arm

(album: A Legend - 1970)

The other night, me and my girl went balling
The other night, me and my girl went balling
Went to a place called Joe's, that's where everybody goes
When we walked in, she turned every face in the place
When we walked in, she turned every face in the place
A cool number jumped up and made a play for my girl
So I said, so long boy!

I said, don't mess with me, 'cause I got a cast iron arm
I said, don't mess with me, 'cause I got a cast iron arm
Oh, when you mess with me, that only ring my alarm

Well, the music was a-rocking and the joint was a-jumping with jive
Well, the music was a-rocking and the joint was a-jumping with jive
Well, the same cool number made the same wrong move

I hit him in the head!
I said, don't mess with me, 'cause I got a cast iron arm
I said, don't mess with me, 'cause I got a cast iron arm
Oh, when you mess with me, that only ring my alarm
I said, don't mess with me, 'cause I got a cast iron arm
I said, don't mess with me, 'cause I got a cast iron arm
Oh, when you mess with me, that only ring my alarm
You ain't gonna mess with me boy!
