i was born one night about twelve o’clock
(ha-ha-ha)
i come in this world playin’ a gold guitar
my father was around stickin’ out his chest
(hee-hee)
a-now, mama this boy he gon fee’ you a mess
(ha-ha-ha-ha-ha)
yeah! yea-ha, ooh, uh-huh
now, people came from miles around
yeah, just to hear my little guitar sound
now, some of ’em said i had what it takes
if i keep on practice i’d be famous one day
(ha-ha)
woo, i’m a mess!
i’m a killer-diller
uh-huh, yea-hey, a-uh, uh-huh
early in the middle of the night
a car drove up with four headlights
(ha-ha-ha-ha-ha)
now, a man stepped out wit’ a long cigar
he said, ‘sign this line and i can make you a star’
(ha-ha-ha-ha-ha)
i said, ‘now, what’s in it man, what’s in it for me?’
he says, ‘i’d, play yo’ guitar son and wait an see’
here i am! (heh-heh-heh, heeee)
the girls liked me, they say, ‘it’s crazy, it sound nice
uuh-uuh
my first engagement was in chicago
i played fo’ some people i’d never seen before
it was good too (ha-ha-ha-ha)
they like it
sound nice
(ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha)
yeah, ah-ha-ha-ha
yeah, man
fades-
i’m killer-diller
i’m ‘on killa diller.
