Jo would you love to scrapple, she'll never say no    
Shine up the battle apple. We'll shake 'em all down tonight. We're gonna mix in the street
Strike at the stroke of midnight. Dance on the bones till the girls say when
Pick up what's left by daylight when Josie comes home

When Josie comes home, so bad, She's the best friend we never had
She's the raw flame, the live wire  She prays like a Roman with her eyes on fire
