Clap for the Wolfman
Lyrics：Burton Cummings /
Kurt Winter / William R Wallace
Clap for the Wolfman
He gon' rate your record high
Clap for the Wolfman
You gon' dig him 'til the day you die
Clap for the Wolfman
He gon' rate your record high (mmh, yes
gracious)
Clap for the Wolfman
You gon' dig him 'til the day you die
Doo Ron Ron and the Duke of Earl
They were friend's of mine
And I was on my moonlight drive
Snuggled in said, "Baby, just one
kiss"
She said, "No, no, no"
Romance ain't keepin' me alive
I said, "Hey babe, do you wanna coo,
coo, coo?"
She said, "Ah, ah, ah"
So I was left out in the cold
I said, "You're what I've been
dreaming of"
She said, "I don't want to know"
(Oh you know, she was diggin' the cat on
the radio)
Clap for the Wolfman
He gon' rate your record high
(Yes baby, I your doctor love)
Clap for the Wolfman
You gon' dig him 'til the day you die
(Heh heh, everybody's talking about the
Wolfman's "pompatous of love")
Seventy-five or eighty miles an hour
She hollered, "Slow, slow, slow"
Baby, I can stop right on a dime
I said, "Hey baby, give me just one
kiss"
She said, "No, no, no"
But how was I to bide my time?
I said, "Hey babe, do you wanna coo,
coo, coo?"
He said "Ah, ah, ah"
Said, "I'm about to overload"
I said "You're what I been living
for"
She said "I don't know want to
know"
(Oh, you thought she was diggin' you but
she was diggin' me)
Clap for the Wolfman
He gon' rate your record high
(As long as you got the curves, baby, I got
the angles)
Clap for the Wolfman
You gon' dig him 'til the day you die
(It's all according to how your boogaloo
situation stands, you understand?)
Clap for the Wolfman
He gon' rate your record high
(You ain't gonna get 'em, 'cause I got 'em,
ha yeah)
Clap for the Wolfman (oh)
You gon' dig him 'til the day you die
(You might wanna try, but I gon' keep 'em)
Clap for the Wolfman (ain't that right
girls? Yes)
Clap for the Wolfman
Clap for the Wolfman
Clap for the Wolfman
Clap for the Wolfman (and I got 'em all)
Clap for the Wolfman (yes you go right on
'head and try)
Clap for the Wolfman (I'm gonna say bye)
Clap for the Wolfman (you love him don't
you?)
Clap for the Wolfman (I love you)
Clap for the Wolfman (come over here my
precious little baby)
Clap for the Wolfman (come here)
Clap for the Wolfman (oh yes love is real
dear, yeah)
Clap for the Wolfman
Clap for the Wolfman (you see what I mean
fellas?)
Clap for the Wolfman (just gotta)
Clap for the Wolfman (clap for the Wolfman)
