Now and then I get horny

At night you do

Smile from side to side

She'll be comin' round the mountain

Six white horses by her side

No stops for gas, food or lodging

We know what will make us happy
F                          E
We know what will ease our pain

My bed is flyin' out the window

I'm pullin' up my covers to the rain

We'll squiggle like honeymooners do

I'm struck by lightnin', it's frightnin'
   D                         A
So excitin', on independence day
      D            A
