I'm as mild mannered man as can be
And I've never done them harm that I can see
Yet on me they put a ban
And they throw me in the can
They go wild, simply wild over me
They accuse me of rascality
And I can't see why they always pick on me
I'm as gentle as a lamb
Yet they take me for a ram
They go wild, simply wild over me
Oh the bull he went wild over me
And he held his club where everyone could see
He was breathing mighty hard
When he saw my union card
He went wild, simply wild over me
Then the judge, he went wild over me
And I plainly saw we never could agree
So I let the man obey
What his conscience had to say
He went wild, simply wild over me
Oh, the jailer, he went wild over me
And he locked me up and threw away the key
Well it seems to be the rage
That they keep me in a cage
They go wild, simply wild over me
They go wild, simply wild over me
I'm referring to the bedbug and the flea
They disturb my slumber deep
And they rob me of my sleep
They go wild, simply wild over me
Will the roses grow wild over me
When I'm gone into the land that is to be?
When my soul and body part
In the stillness of my heart
Will the roses grow wild over me?
