Oh, Mama was a rock and roll singer
Yeah, Papa used to write all her songs
Well, you could hear their music playing on the jukebox all day long

Oh, they were bringing down together, yes, yes, in a 2-part harmony
Till one day, one day, my daddy sang alone
Ooh, and he sang his song just for me
Good God!

You think you’re just a fox and that’s all that you got to be
Oh, well you might be a fox but, lady, that ain’t enough for me
You’re vamping everybody in town but you’re jacking me around

Foxy lady shinning on, I hope you miss me when I’m gone
‘Cause foxy lady “gone” is where I’m gonna be

You’re super fine and you blow people’s minds I know
But will you pardon me, please, if I don’t stick around for your show?
You’ve got everybody chasing your tail, they even let you put them in jail

Foxy lady shinning on, I hope you miss me when I’m gone
‘Cause foxy lady “gone” is where I’m gonna be

Oh, damn you girl, you went and messed up the world we had
And what I’m trying to say in my own sweet way is I’m mad
You got everybody singing your tune but you’re flying on a pregnant balloon
Foxy lady shinning on, I hope you miss me when I’m gone
‘Cause foxy lady “gone” is where I’m gonna be

I know the whole world can’t be just like me
I can only sing in two-part harmony
