[Verse]
(Riff 1)x2
My Gdaddy was shy, he Clived in CheGyenne
GHe turned as red as I've Dever seen a man
And his Gskin was thick, and he was Chard as a brick
And Djust couldn't talk to no Emone
And that Amust be where CI get it Gfrom
My Guncle worked in a plutConium Gmine
His Gjob was to set up the Ddynamite
And he Ggot too close to a Ccharge underground
And Dall of his feelings went Emnumb
And that Amust be where CI get it Gfrom
[Chorus]
KiD-yay, Cyippee yi-Gyo
Em (Riff 2) A C
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
KiD-yay, Cyippee yi-Gyo Em A A
[Verse]
(Riff 1)
My Gmama was Cten feet Gtall
GShe wasn't afraid of Dnothing at all
And she Gsaid her prayers to be Cproper and all
She Dswore on a grave and a Emgun
And that Amust be where CI get it Gfrom
Great-Ggrandad went mad, he was Ctotally Gtweaked
GHe wore the same suit every Dday of the week
And I Gasked how it feels to Cbe such a freak
And Dhe said, "You tell me, Emson"
And that Amust be where CI get it Gfrom
[Chorus]
KiD-yay, Cyippee yi-Gyo
Em (Riff 2) A C
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
KiD-yay, Cyippee yi-Gyo Em A A
[Verse]
(Riff 1)
GDad's little hands Csat in his Glap
GLike a couple of crabs who got Dcaught in a trap
And he Gshook my hand from so Cfar away that
He Dlooked like a spot on the Emsun
And I gueAss that's wherCe I get iGt from
And I gueAss that's wherCe I get iEmt from
And I gueAss that's wherCe I get iGt from
