TITLE: The Moose Song
Lyrics and Chords


*When I was a young man I used to like girls
I'd tickle their bodies and play with their curls
Till my girlfriend ran off with a salesman named Bruce
Now you'd never be treated that way by a Moose

/ G D G - / G Em D - / Em Bm Am D / G - D G /

{Refrain}
For it's moose! moose! I want a moose!
I have never had anything quite like a moose
Tho' I've had many women, my life has been loose
I have never had anything quite like a moose

When I'm in the mood for a very good lay
I go to the closet and get me some hay
And I go to the window and spread it around
For the mooses will come when there's hay on the ground

{Refrain}

Oh I've done it with all sorts of beasties with hair
And I'd do it with snakes, if their fangs weren't there
Oh I've done it with llamas and sheepdogs and goose
I have never had anything quite like a moose

{Refrain} 

Well, gorillas are fun on a Saturday night
And lions and tigers can put up a fight
But it's just not the same when I ram their caboose
As the feeling I get when I jump on a moose

{Refrain}

So now I am old and advanced in my years
When I look on my life I will shed me no tears
As I sit in my chair with a glass of Mateaus
Playing hide the salami with Marvin the Moose

{Refrain}
