Hot as a Docker's Armpit Lyrics
Oh yeah
Going down to the town
I’ve gotta find where I've gone
Anyday anyway
I’ve gotta do it alone
Gotta go and I know
That I will never never leave her alone
She’s a whore at her door
That I could never never never ignore
I don't know what you are,
Will you hold my hand
I don't know what you are,
Help me understand
You will understand
She’s as hot as a docker's armpit
She’s as hot as a docker's armpit
She’s as hot as hey hey hey yeah!
Going down to the town
I’ve gotta find where I've gone
Anyday anyway
I’ve gotta do it alone
Gotta go and I know
That I will never never leave her alone
She’s a whore at her door
That I could never never never ignore
Will you hold my hand
I don't know what you are,
Help me understand
You will understand
She’s as hot as a docker's armpit
She’s as hot as hey hey hey yeah!
