作词 : VanVliet The floppy boot stomped down onto the ground The farmer screamed 'n blew the sky off the mountains Eye sockets looked down on the chestbone meadows 'n the sun dropped down, 'n the moon ran off, His heels 'n elbows pale as chalk 'n all the comets collided 'n blew t' dust For fear they'd be seen. 'n the sky turned white in the middle of the night 'n the sky turned white in the middle of the night 'n the big floppy boot stomped down onto the ground 'n the red violin took the bow for to do the hoodoo hoe-down 'n the red violin took the bow for to do the hoodoo hoe-down The farmer jumped in a circle 'n flung his chalk right down Do-si-do the devil sure showed 'n he broke of his horns 'n fiddled him down the road through the fork 'n the farmer's floppy boot stomped down Red tail squirmin' and the hot leg kicked 'n the fire leaped 'n licked Red tail squirmin' and the hot leg kicked 'n the fire leaped 'n licked And when the boot came up, the fire went out And hell was just an ice cube melting off on the ground. And the bow caught down for to do the hoodoo hoe-down And the bow caught down for to do the hoodoo, the devil hoe-down Through the fork, huddled’ in the hollow, standin’ at the crossroads Was that bunged-up bandaged broken bum that fell into the wrong circle He had a sore red tail that once went red, now was pale Fe-Fi-Fo-Fum he was summoned up from hell Booted down a spell By a square-dancin’ farmer By a square-dancin’ farmer, well That old bum was sticking out his thumb When the farmer drew up and said "Listen son", and the horse compared his hooves. "If you fall into my circle again I’ll tan your red hide And dance you on your tail, and pitch you from now to now Pitch you from now to now." And the hotlick kicked, and the fire leaped an’ licked And the hotlick kicked and the fire just leaped an’ licked And the hotlick kickin’ an’ the fire jus’ leapin’ an’ lickin’ And the fire leaped and licked.
