Lyrics The Dirty Dozen No. 2 - Speckled Red

Now, now boys, say you ain't acting fair
You know by that you got real bad hair
Your face is all hid, now your back's all bare
If you ain't doing the bobo, what's your head doing down there?

You's a dirty mistreater, robber and a cheater
Slip you in the dozen, now your papa is your cousin
And your mama do the Lordy-Lord

Now, your little sister, why she asked me to kiss her
I told her to wait until she got a little bigger
She got a little bigger, said now I did kiss her
You know by that, boy, I did miss her

Now she's a dirty mistreater, robber and a cheater
Slip you in the dozen, and your papa is your cousin
Your mama do the Lordy-Lord

Now the first three months said she did very well
Next three months she began to raise a little hell
Next three months said she got real rough
You know by that, that she was strutting her stuff

Now you's a dirty mistreater, robber and a cheater
Slip you in the dozen, now your papa is your cousin
And your mama do the Lordy-Lord

Now I like your mama, but she wouldn't do this
I hit her cross the head with my great big fist
The clock's on the shelf going tick tick tick
Your mama's out on the street doing I don't know which

Four, five, six, seven, eight, nine and ten
I like your mama but she got too many men
Ashes to ashes, now it's sand to sand
Every time I see her, she's got a brand new man

Now she's a dirty mistreater, robber and a cheater
Slip you in the dozen, now your papa is your cousin
And your mama do the Lordy-Lord
