Текст песни Heart Transplant - Ray Stevens

Heart attack number two, thought he was a goner
Then I heard the doctor say: "Ooo, we got a donor
If he hurry we just might be able
To get him on that operating table"

Yeah, "scratch" goes the scalpel
And "prrrt" goes the needle
And presto, whaddya know,
He's fit as a fiddle!

Got a transplanted heart
He got a brand new start
Yeah he may be aided too
But he's as good as new
He's a new man on a second hand organ
A transplanted heart, a brand new part
Yeah thanks to the doctor's knife
He got a new lease on life
But his troubles are about to start

Tell you what I mean...

Yeah his heart is young, his heart is strong
His heart wants to rock and roll all night long
But his body takes all kinds of persuasion
Yeah his heart's a swinger, his heart is tough
His heart finds all kinds of female stuff
But he just can't get his body to rise to the occasion

Well his heart goes
(Pump pump pump pump pump pump)
And the body goes
(Slump slump slump slump slump slump)
Yeah heart says (go! go!)
His body says (no! no!)
Let's go on a bender! (I surrender!)
Chaaarge! (Retreaat!)

Well his heart said "Come on, let's have a ball!"
But his body says "hold it pal, that's all"
And it develops into an awkward situation

Got a transplanted heart
He got a brand new start
Yeah he may be aided too
But he's as good as new
He's a new man on a second hand organ
A transplanted heart, yeah a brand new part
Well thanks to the doctor's knife
He got a new lease on life
But it's just about to tear him apart

Tell you what I mean...

He met a gal, she was sweet
She really swept him off his feet
He failed, and he couldn't get up
Oh, she kissed and whispered in his ear
Sweet nothings designed to put his motor in gear
But all he could do was just lie there like a lump

Yeah his heart goes
(Pump pump pump pump pump pump)
And his body goes
(Slump slump slump slump slump slump)
Yeah his heart says (go! go!)
His body says (no! no!)
Let's go on a bender! (I surrender!)

His heart wants to dance and make romance
But his body says "sorry pal, no chance,
I just ain't got the jump to get you over the hump"

Got a transplanted heart
Yeah a brand new start
Well he may be aided too
But he's as good as new
He's a new man with a second hand organ
A transplanted heart, a brand new part
Yes thanks to the doctor's knife
He got a new lease on life
And it's just about to tear him apart

Got a transplanted heart
Hey, he got a brand new start
Well he may be aided too
But he's as good as new
He's a new man with a second hand organ...
