Ooh-ooh 
Old Mr. Joe, he build a house away 
On top of some hill 
Old Mr. Joe knew he had to go, so he 
He got right down and wrote bank will 
He say now, here's to mother hen 
And her chicken, Lord have mercy now 
Master, will you take a roll in the mud 
Like you know you should? 
The old barnyard, the old barnyard 
Birds and the chick, ooh-wee 
Who's got to watch out for brother mongoose 
With his top hap and walking-stick? 

It's just the poor's brain washing 
(Poor's ...) They told me a long time ago, 
It's just the poor's brain washing, ooh-wee 
(Poor's brain washing) Now look at a thing like this 

Cinderella and her long lost fellow 
In the midnight hour, she lost her silver slipper 
Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall 
While Jack and Jill had themselves a fall 

It's just the poor's (... brain washing) 
And I don't need it no longer (... washing) 
It's just the poor's brain washing  [bad word] through to a poor man's child, ooh-wee, look at this 

Little Miss Muffet she sat on a tuffet 
While Little Red Riding Hood delivered her grandmom's food 
Ooh-wee ooh-wee 
Ooh-wee, look at one more thing like this 
The cow jumping over the moon 
While the dish got jealous, he grabbed the handy spoon 

It's just the poor's brain washing 
And I don't need it no longer, I don't want it no longer 
I don't need it no longer (...washing) 
And I don't care for no more brain washing (... washing) ...
