Hoo Dee Hoo Lyrics
The girl said do you love me, the boy said I do
The girl said prove it, the boy said hoo-dee-hoo
I headed for the water tower straight to the top
With my spray paint can and I did not stop
I painted your name larger than life
About eight feet tall and about twelve feet wide
And I think that you believed me when I came back down
And for a couple of weeks we were the talk of the town
And the girls sang hoo-dee-hoo
And the boys sang hoo-dee-hoo
And everybody sang hoo-dee-hoo
Hoo-dee-hoo-hoo-hoo
Then I left town looking for the Holy Grail
You left the very next week with the jet set
Sailing for the Caribbean where the rich kids play
I missed you so much I fell down and prayed
I joined every church that claimed they knew my sin
They made me write the Lord's Prayer on the head of a pin
CHORUS
Well one year it was the factory and one year the park
We heated with wood and the house caught fire
I reached for a figure through the smoke and the sparks
But which done did I save, the girl or the guitar
Well I made a lot of money, got a lot of good press
Writing paperback novels like a man possessed
Every name was changed, every story was true

Every priest was me, every stripper was you
And they danced like angels cast out for being lovers
And I wrote their life story on a matchbook cover
CHORUS
I went home for Christmas to that little old town
I ate a big dinner and went walking around
I seen some other dumb kid had made that long hard climb
He'd wasted his paint, wasted his time
But I know I'd do it all again if you asked me to
And I'd take you with me this time
Singing hoo-dee-hoo
CHORUS
