thirty days




I'm gonna give you thirty days to get back home

I done called up the gypsy woman on the telephone

She gonna send out a worldwide hoodoo

That'll be the very thing that'll suit you

I'm gonna see that you be back home in thirty days

     Oh thirty days (thirty days)

     Oh, thirty days (thirty days)

Baby I'm gonna see that you'll be back home in thirty days

Gonna send out a worldwide hoodoo

That'll be the very thing that'll suit you

I'm gonna see that you'll be back home in thirty days.



I done talked to the judge in private early this mornin'

And he took me to the sheriff's office to sign a warrant

Gonna put across charge agin' ya

That'll be the very thing that'll send ya

I'm gonna see that you'll be back home in thirty days

     Oh thirty days (thirty days)

     Oh thirty days (thirty days)

I'm gonna see that you'll be back home in thirty days

Gonna put across charges agin' ya

That'll be the very thing that'll send ya

I'm gonna see that you'll be back home in thirty days



If I don't get no satisfaction from the judge

I'm gonna take it to the FBI and voice my grudge

If they don't give me no consolation

I'm gonna take it to the United Nations

I'm gonna see that you'll be back home in thirty days

     Oh thirty days (thirty days)

     Oh! thirty days! (thirty days)

I'm gonna see that you'll be back home in thirty days

You don't gimme no consolation

I'm gonna take it to the United Nations

I'm gonna see that you'll be back home in thirty days
