[Verse 1]
Let me tell you what sweet petunias do
Take your money and stay all night from you
And I'm wild about my 'tunia, the only thing I crave
Wild about my 'tunia, the only thing I crave
Sweet petunia's gonna follow me to my grave

[Verse 2]
I went up on the mountain, looked down in the deep blue sea
A big fat man was tryin' to play with me
And I'm wild about my 'tunia, the only thing I crave
Wild about my 'tunia, the only thing I crave
Sweet petunia's gonna follow me to my grave

[Verse 3]
If I could holler like a mountain jack
Go out on the mountain, call sweet petunia back
'Cause I'm wild about my 'tunia, the only thing I crave
Wild about my 'tunia, the only thing I crave
Sweet petunia's gonna follow me to my grave

[Verse 4]
Sweet petunia's a man I can't understand
He got ways likе a boy but he's a full-grown man
And I'm wild about my 'tunia, only thing I crave
Wild about my 'tunia, the only thing I cravе
Sweet petunia's gonna follow me to my grave
