With The Bug

(album: Rare Orbison - 1989)

Well down through the ages. woman's had a time
Trying to get her man to walk the chalk line
To keep him on a string with a kiss and a hug
But there's never been a man who wasn't bitten by the bug

Yeah rocking and rolling with the bug
Rolling and strolling with the bug
Itching and twitching singing and swinging
Yeah with the bug

Well Delilah loved Sammy, but he wouldnt stay home
Always running and leaving Dee home
She set out to find Sammy late one night
Found him down at the sand dune rocking it right

He was rocking and rolling with the bug
Rolling and strolling with the bug
Itching and twitching singing and swinging
Yeah with the bug

Well Helen of Troy a cool smile on her face
She sported the face that launched a thousand ships
But she couldn't control the wiggle in her hips
She lost her fame and fortune, just one flip

Well rocking and rolling with the bug
Rolling and strolling with the bug
Itching and twitching singing and swinging
Yeah with the bug

Well now Josephine, She had trouble from the start
She couldn't keep her eye on little Bonoparte
Every single time that Josie looked around
She found her Bony running round and round

He was rocking and rolling with the bug
Rolling and strolling with the bug
Itching and twitching singing and swinging
Yeah with the bug

Well now, are modern times the same as history
Even in the twentieth century
And our future now well it's plain to see
If we don't look out, the bug will get you and me

We'll be rocking and rolling with the bug
Rolling and strolling with the bug
Itching and twitching singing and swinging
Yeah with the bug
Yeah, with the bug
With the bug
With the bug
With the bug
With the bug
With the bug ...
