One Eyed Jacks With Moustaches

Slade · Slade Alive Vol. 2 [1978]

One Eyed Jacks With Moustaches

Are wild on the side

Two eyed queens makin' passes

With childs on the side

Hard hearted Mamas who ain't

Cold as ice on the side.



Bald headed eagles like to

Feather their nests on the side,

Wide eyed Madonnas like to

Treasure their chests on the side,

Smooth talkin' Gigolo[s] are going along for the ride.



CHORUS:



Hit me, hit me, hit me Mac

Gimme a jack before I pack

Hit me, hit me, hit me Joe

Gimme a hit before I go.



I'm gonna tell ya pretty Mama,

That you don't know no lie,

I'm gonna tell ya pretty baby,

That you won't make me cry,

Umma gumma uma uma,

Make me feel good,

Ooh pretty baby baby,

Just like you should

Come a come a baby,

Don't you tell me no lie,

Come a come a honey honey

Don't make me cry

The hard hearted Mamas

Are sure on the side

And One Eyed Jacks

With Moustaches are wild.



One Eyed Jacks With Moustaches,

Are wild on the side,

Two eyed queens with eyelashes

That flashes and cried

Hard hearted Mamas who talk

To you nice on the ride.



CHORUS.
