John Loudermilk - He's Just A Scientist lyrics

He don't play football, golf or guitar

He's never been on Sullivan, Clark or Paar

He's just not important, 'cause he ain't a star

He's just a scientist, oh oh, just a scientist, hey hey,

Just a scientist, mmm mmm, just a scientist, that's all.

Now, all the games are won by big and brawny half-backs

And marshals find the rustlers by their horse's tracks

But who is gonna get us to the moon and back?

He'll be a scientist, hey hey, just a scientist

Oh yeah, just a scientist, just a scientist, that's all.

Everybody's flippin' over Fabian or Frankie Avalon

But nobody ever seems to give a flip

Over Doctor Werner von Braun

Cause he's just a scientist, yeah, just a scientist

Just a scientist, just a scientist, that's all.

Now, all that we remember is that Cadillac

That knocked us out and made us gawk

We done forgot about that polio shot

Invented by Dr. Salk,

Cause he's just a scientist, oh yeah, he's just a scientist

Just a scientist, just a scientist, just a scientist, that's all.
