Well, the shark and the cockroach

You know, neither one a friend of man

They were waitin' right behind him

When the journey through time began

And when the blood begins to billow

The old pulse is growin' dim

The shark, he circles, and the cockroach waits

See what's left of him

Hey

Heh-heh-hey, hey

Hey, hey

Hee, hee

Hee, hee

Now, Billy D. Lion was a cockroach

He could go without food for days

Aw, you could shine a bright light on him

And watch him run ten different ways

(Look at him run!)

Everything had been peaceful

Around my house and around my home

But I knew that Billy would tell old Frankie

If I ever got the urge to roam

(Walk on, boys! Um!)

Now, Frankie was a long, grey shark

He dealt in girls and loans

All I see is the blood on Frankie boy's hands

But they ain't never found the bones

And I don't owe him a nickel

I-I don't owe him a dime

But when I left home on-a Friday night

Well, I can't find my woman of mine

Oh, the Lord helps those who could help themselves

And I'm holdin' on to mine

So I dove in my Cadillac, I drove around the corner

Got to find woman of mine

I come right down though to the attic

And I playin' with the kitchen door

The very last sound that Frankie boy heard

Was the roar of my .44!

Hey, hey, yeah

Hey, hey

Hee, hee

Hee, hee

Now, the shark and the cockroach

Neither one's a friend of man

They were waitin' right behind him

When the journey through time began

Oh, way down in this cold, little cell

I wring my hands and cry

Billy D. Lion and the woman I love

Laugh at me when they go by

Heh-heh-hey, hey

Hey, hey

Hee, hee

Hee, hee

(Ask your mama!)
