Steppenwolf - Tighten up Your Wig lyrics

Words and music by John Kay

What can you see with your ear on the ground

Try to lift up your feet, girl, and take a look around

Let me see your eyes girl

We've got to make them big

If you'd like to see the truth

I better tighten up your wig

Your mind is too narrow, and it's no surprise

If you fell on a pin, well, you'd be blind in both eyes

Oh, let me see your head, girl, we've got to make it big

Until your ears come apart, I better tighten up your wig

Watch out for the lunch bunch, they'll try to bring you down

Don't get hung up in the shower, baby, you might drown

Oh yeah, oh, your head looks kinda big

Before I loose you mind, girl, I better tighten up your wig

Just before we go, I'd like to mention Junior Wells

We stole his thing from him, and he from someone else

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, he plays the blues like few before

May he play forevermore
