Shorty's Got to Go

I was a long way from home
And I didn't know what to do
So I picked up the telephone
Because I felt so blue
Now the telephone kept ringing
It rang 'til it got dizzy
When a big bass voice jumped up and said
"Stop ringing me 'cause I'm busy"

I said, "Who is you?"
He said, "Who is you?"
I said, "My name's Mr. Bone"
He said, "Who is you?"
I said, "Who is you?"
He said, "My name is Shorty Jones"
"Get out of my house, get out of my house
Get out of my house, you louse
Let the dog get you, well, the dog met you
Get out, get out"

Has anybody here seen Shorty? (No!)
Does anybody here know Shorty? (What?)
You tell that guy he's got to die
Shorty's got to go (How many?)

Shorty's got to go
Shorty's got to go
He took my hat, that go-down rat
Shorty's got to go
Well, he took my last pair of underwear
Shorty's got to go
Stole my dog, my Fattest Hog
Shorty's got to go
Well, he took my last shoe, I took that, too
Shorty's got to go

Has anybody here know Shorty? (No!)
Does anybody here know Shorty? (What?)
He took my wife, wrecked my life
Shorty's got to go (How many?)

Shorty's got to go
Shorty's got to go
Shorty's got to go
