Ain’t It Crazy (The Rub) (Live at Fillmore East NYC April 1971)
[Verse 1]
Mama got the rub board, sister got the tub
They're going around doing the rub-de-rub

[Chorus]
Ain’t it crazy? Ain't it crazy?
Ain't it crazy one day, to keep on rubbin’ that thang

[Verse 2]
Two old maids, they was layin' in a bed
One turned over and this is what she said

[Chorus]
Ain't it crazy? Ain't it crazy?
Ain't it crazy one day, to keep on rubbin' that thang

[Verse 3]
Mama killed a chicken and thought it was a duck
Put him on the table with his feet sticking up

[Chorus]
Ain't it crazy? Ain't it crazy?
Ain’t it crazy one day, to keep on rubbin’ that thang

[Instrumental Break]

[Guitar solo]
[Verse 4]
There was two old maids, layin' in the sand
Each one wishing that the other was a man

[Chorus]
Ain’t it crazy? Ain't it crazy?
Ain't it crazy one day, to keep on rubbin' at that thang

[Verse 5]
Mama got the rub board, sister got the tub
They’re going around doing the rub-de-rub

[Chorus]
You know it got to be crazy; ain't it crazy?
Ain't it crazy one day, to keep on rubbin' that thang

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 6]
Mama killed a chicken and thought it was a duck
And she laid him on the table with his feet sticking up

[Chorus]
Ain't it crazy? Ain't it crazy?
Ain't it crazy one day, to keep on rubbin' that thang
[Instrumental Break]

Two old maids, they was layin' in the bed
One turned over and this what she said

[Chorus]
Ain't it crazy? Ain't it crazy?
Ain't it crazy one day, to keep on rubbin' at that thang

[Instrumental]
