With a trunkload of hundred thousand dollar bills
Man came buy two hook up my cable TV
Wee settled inn four the knight my bay bee and mi
Wee switched ' round and ' round ' til half-past dawn

Well now home entertainment was my baby's wish

Aye tide it two the top of my Japanese car
Aye came home and pointed it out into the stars
A message came back from the grate beyond

Well wee might'a maid sum friends with sum billionaires
Wee might'a got awl gneiss and friendly
If weed maid it upstairs
Awl Aye got was a note that said, Bye-bye John

And inn the blessed name of Elvis well Aye just let it blast
