She asks me why, I'm just a hairy guy I'm hairy noon and night, hair that's a fright I'm hairy high and low, don't ask me why, don't know It's not for lack of bread, like the grateful Dead, darlin' Give me a head with hair, long beautiful hair Shining, gleaming, streaming, flaxen, waxen Give me down to there, hair, shoulder length or longer Here baby, there, momma, everywhere, daddy, daddy Hair, flow it, show it Long as God can grow, my hair Let it fly in the breeze and get caught in the trees Give a home to the fleas, in my hair A home for fleas, a hive for the buzzing bees A nest for birds, there ain't no words For the beauty, splendor, the wonder of my hair Flow it, show it Long as God can grow, my hair I want long, straight, curly, fuzzy, snaggy, shaggy, ratty, matty Oily, greasy, fleecy, shining, gleaming, streaming, flaxen, waxen Knotted, polka dotted, twisted, beaded, braided Powered, flowered and confettied Bangled, tangled, spangled and spahettied Oh say, can you see my eyes if you can Then my hair's too short Down with here, down to there Down till there, down to where it's stuck by itself They'll be ga-ga at the go-go, when they see me in my toga My toga made of blond, brilliantined, biblical hair My hair like Jesus wore it, Hallelujah I adore it Hallelujah Mary loved her son, why don't my mother love me? Hair, flow it, show it Long as God can grow My hair, flow it, show it Long as God can grow My hair, flow it, show it Long as God can grow My hair
