There's a wasp nest on my back porch
It might be a cause for alarm
There's a wasp nest on my back porch
It might be a cause for alarm

There's some holes in my screen door
And the little critters is all swarm

To fix the holes, it's gonna take
Some hairpins and some wire
To fix the holes, it's gonna take
Some hairpins and some wire

If a wasp is to sting you
It burns like a righteous hellfire

Them goddamn wasp is good for nothin'
They're lowdown, miserable, mean
Them goddamn wasp is good for nothin'
They're lowdown, miserable, mean

For the time being, I'll just swat at 'em
Till the holes is patched up in my screen
Oh, Lord
