Bawitdaba, da bang, da dang diggy diggy, diggy, said the boogie, said up jump the boogie My name is kid Kid rock! Bawitdaba da bang da bang diggy diggy diggy Shake the boogie said up jump the boogie Bawitdaba da bang da bang diggy diggy diggy Shake the boogie said up jump the boogie Bawitdaba da bang da bang diggy diggy diggy Shake the boogie said up jump the boogie Bawitdaba da bang da bang diggy diggy diggy Shake the boogie said up jump the boogie And this is for the questions that don't have an answer The midnight glances And the topless dancers The can of freaks Cars packed with speakers The g's with the forty's And the chicks with beepers The northern lights And the southern comfort And it don't even matter if your veins are punctured All the crackheads, the critics, the cities And all my heroes at the methodone clinics All you bastards at the i.r.s. For the crooked cops and the cluttered desks For the shots of jack and the caps of meth Half pints of love and a fifth of stress All the hookers that are tricking out in hollywood And for my hoods of the world misunderstood I said it's all good and it's all in fun Now get in the pit and try to love someone! Bawitdaba da bang da bang diggy diggy diggy Shake the boogie said up jump the boogie Bawitdaba da bang da bang diggy diggy diggy Shake the boogie said up jump the boogie Bawitdaba da bang da bang diggy diggy diggy Shake the boogie said up jump the boogie Bawitdaba da bang da bang diggy diggy diggy Shake the boogie said up jump the boogie For the time bombs clicking and the heads they hang All the gangs gettin' money and the heads they bang - bang Wild mustangs The porno flicks All my homies in the county in cell block six The grits when there ain't enough eggs to cook And to d.b. cooper and the money he took You can look for answers but that ain't fun Now get in the pit and try to love someone! Bawitdaba da bang da bang diggy diggy diggy Shake the boogie said up jump the boogie Bawitdaba da bang da bang diggy diggy diggy Shake the boogie said up jump the boogie
