Tom Paxton Skeeters'll Gitcha
Skeeters'll gitcha if your screens ain't tight;
They're bigger than robins and they're wild tonight.
Skeeters'll gitcha if your screens ain't tight
And your screens ain't tight at all.
Lorena, won't you come and scratch my back, while
I'm leavin' but you know I'm comin' back in style.
Drivin' a long, white foreign car,
Dressed like a foreign movie star,
Think how happy you could be
If you took a little tip from me!
Skeeters'll gitcha if your screens ain't tight;
They're bigger than robins and they're wild tonight.
Skeeters'll gitcha if your screens ain't tight
And your screens ain't tight at all.
Lorena, come and see this truth I found.
You were missin' on the day they passed good sense around.
If you had any sense then you'd have to agree;
If you had any sense then you couldn't love me.
Give me a sweet little kiss,
And just remember this:
Skeeters'll gitcha if your screens ain't tight;
They're bigger than robins and they're wild tonight.
Skeeters'll gitcha if your screens ain't tight
And your screens ain't tight at all.
Skeeters'll gitcha if your screens ain't tight;
They're bigger than robins and they're wild tonight.
Skeeters'll gitcha if your screens ain't tight
And your screens ain't tight at all.
No, your screens ain't tight at all!
