Your rating:

Oh!
 Trapped!...
 Tricked! ...
 Hoodwinked! ...
 Ambushed! ...

 [Men]
 Friend,
 Whut's on yer mind?
 Why do you walk
 Around and around,
 With yer hands
 Folded behind,
 And yer chin scrapin' the ground?

 [Peddler]
 [Speaking]
 O fellars I don't believe it!

 [Singing]
 Twenty minutes ago I am free like the breeze,
 Free like a bird in the woodland wild,
 Free like a gypsy, free like a child,
 I'm a happy man!

 [Additional Verse]
 I'm unattached!
 Twenty minutes ago I can do what I please,
 Flick my cigar ashes on a rug,
 Dunk with a donut, drink from a jug-

 [Peddler]
 I'm minding my own business like I oughter
 Ain't meanin' no harm to anyone.
 I'm talking to a certain farmer's daughter-
 Then I'm looking into the muzzle of a gun!

 [Men]
 It's getting so you cain't have any fun!
 Every daughter has a father with a gun!
 It's a scandal, it's an outrage!
 How a gal gits a husband today!

 [Peddler]
 If you make one mistake when the moon is bright,
 Then they tie you to a contract,
 So you'll make it ev'ry night!

 [Men]
 It's a scandal, it's an outrage!
 When her fambly surround you and say:
 "You gotta make an honest womern outta Nell!"

 [Peddler]
 To make you make her honest, she will lie like hell!

 [Men]
 It's a scandal, it's an outrage!
 On our manhood, it's a blot!
 Where is the leader who will save us?
 And be the first man to be shot?

 [Peddler]
 Me?

 [Men]
 It's a scandal, it's an outrage!
 Jist a wink and a kiss and you're through!

 [Peddler]
 You're in a mess, and in less than a year, by heck!
 There's a baby on your shoulder making bubbles on your neck!

 [Men]
 It's a scandal, it's an outrage!
 Any farmer will tell you it's true.

 [Peddler]
 A rooster in a chickencoop is better off'n men.
 He ain't the special property of just one hen!

 [Men]
 It's a scandal, it's an outrage!
 When it's gonna be the day
 We're gonna lead the liberation
 And we will lead the way?

 [Alternative Verse]
 [Men]
 It's a problem we must solve
 We gotta start a revolution!

 [Girls]
 All right, boys! Revolve
