Lyrics

[00:00.00] The White Stripes - Icky Thump
[00:10.00]
[00:20.88] Yah-hee, "icky-thump" who’d a-thunk
[00:22.58] Sittin’ drunk on a wagon to Mexico
[00:25.25] Her hair, what a chump on my head
[00:26.80] Got a bump when I hit it on the radio
[00:30.74] Red-head "señorita" lookin’ dead
[00:31.77] Came to said I need a bed in "español"
[00:35.03] So I gave a drink of water
[00:36.61] I’m gonna sing around the collar
[00:37.80] But I don’t need a microphone
[00:39.56]
[01:17.45] "Icky thump", with the lump
[01:19.24] In my throat,grab my coat
[01:20.52] And now it’s reckon that I was ready to go
[01:23.44] Well I swam beside her head
[01:24.64] She had to wonder why I one blank stare
[01:26.90] Lookin’ like a nightmare
[01:28.39] On a stand in her hair was a kid that came
[01:30.31] Black room, sugar cane
[01:31.40] Jive on some strings
[01:32.81] La la la ...
[01:38.63]
[02:20.88] Well Americans want nothing better to do
[02:23.01] Why don’t you kick yourself out?
[02:24.29] You’re an immigrant too
[02:25.78] Who’s usin’ who?What should we do?
[02:27.72] Well you can’t be a pimp and a prostitute too
[02:31.99]
[02:36.45] "Icky thump", handcuffed to a bunk
[02:38.00] Robbed blind,looked around
[02:39.17] And there was nobody else
[02:41.03] Left alone I hit myself with the stone
[02:43.20] Went home and learned how to clean up after myself
[02:46.33]
