 She asks me why
 I'm just a hairy guy
 I'm hairy noon and night
 Hair that's a fright
 I'm hairy high and low
 Don't ask me why
 Don't know
 It's not for lack of bread
 Like the Grateful Dead
 Darling

 Gimme head with hair
 Long beautiful hair
 Shining, gleaming,
 Streaming, flaxen, waxen

 Give me down to there hair
 Shoulder length or longer
 Here baby, there mama
 Everywhere daddy daddy

 Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
 Flow it, show it
 Long as God can grow it
 My hair

 Let it fly in the breeze
 And get caught in the trees
 Give a home to the fleas in my hair
 A home for fleas
 A hive for bees
 A nest for birds
 There ain't no words
 For the beauty, the splendor, the wonder
 Of my...

 Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
 Flow it, show it
 Long as God can grow it
 My hair

 I want it long, straight, curly, fuzzy
 Snaggy, shaggy, ratty, matty
 Oily, greasy, fleecy
 Shining, gleaming, streaming
 Flaxen, waxen
 Knotted, polka-dotted
 Twisted, beaded, braided
 Powdered, flowered, and confettied
 Bangled, tangled, spangled, and spaghettied!

 Oh say can you see
 My eyes if you can
 Then my hair's too short

 Down to here
 Down to there
 Down to where
 It stops by itself

 They'll be ga ga at the go go
 When they see me in my toga
 My toga made of blond
 Brilliantined
 Biblical hair

 My hair like Jesus wore it
 Hallelujah I adore it
 Hallelujah Mary loved her son
 Why don't my mother love me?

 Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
 Flow it, show it
 Long as God can grow it
 My hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
 Flow it, show it
 Long as God can grow it
 My hair
