They call, they call me the fat man
‘Cause I weight two hundred pounds
All the girls they love me
‘Cause I know my way around
I was standin’, I was standin’ on the corner
Of Rampart and Canal
I was watchin’, watchin’
Watchin’ all these creole gals
Wah wah wah, wah wah
Wah wah waah, wah wah wah
Wah wah waah, wah wah wah
Wah wah wah
Wah waah wah
Wah wah wah, wah wah wah
Wah wah wah, wah wah wah
Wah wah wah
I’m goin’, I’m goin’ goin’ away
And I’m goin’, goin’ to stay
‘Cause women and a bad life
They’re carrying this soul away
