Folks I'm looking for a worker â?¦not you I want an extra special kind When I get the type of man I want I know I'm gonna have a little time Got to be ambitious, a man that loves to work I don't want no man that's lazy, no man that tries to shirk I want a two-fisted, double-jointed, rough and ready man I want a hard working, no shirking, good and steady man Now he can be a backwards farmer or a digger in a ditch He can even drive a garbage wagon Honey it don't make no difference which Long as he's a two-fisted (oh please), double-jointed, rough and ready man I want a hard working, no shirking, good and steady man Now I don't have to have a fat man And neither must he be too thin And I sure don't want no guy Got to get all pepped up on gin And if he doesn't like soap and water Don't let that worry you â?¦we'll get along But honey I want a man like Joe Louis You knowâ?¦ a man that's big and strong I want a two-fisted, double-jointed, rough and ready man I want a hard working, no shirking, good and steady man Now he can be knock-kneed, box-ankled He can even have frog-eyes But that won't make a bit of differenceâ?¦ if he's Okâ?¦ otherwise I want a two-fisted, double-jointed, rough and ready man I want a hard working, no shirking, good and steady man When he snores I want the force to blow the bedclothes to the floor And the breezes from his wheezes to knock the padlock off the door When I come home some morning all dressed up like Esther's horse I want him to grab me and tear all of my clothes, just to let me know who's boss I want a two-fisted, double-jointed, rough and ready man I want a hard working, no shirking, good and steady man I want a man who won't let his children play with neither dog nor cat But will drag in a skunk or a lion and say "Here, you kids, play with that" I want a two-fisted, double-jointed, rough and ready man Is that clear to you? Rough and ready man
