Notes

Here's the version in the mp3 recording:

Well I...
Stuck my head in a little skunk's hole
And the little skunk said, "WELL BLESS MY SOUL!"
"TAKE IT OUT!"
"TAKE IT OUT!"
"RE-MOOOVE IT!"

Well I...
Didn't take it out an' the little skunk said,
"If you don't take it out you'll wish you had!"
"TAKE IT OUT!"
"TAKE IT OUT!"
"RE-MOOOVE IT!"
Tssssssss!!!!!!!!!!
I re-moooved it...
Too late!
