Way down yonder in the tall gra**
A little bitty woman named Sa**afras
A wiggle in her walk and a tickle in her talk
And a funny way of putting on the cla**
They say white lightning is in a jar
Clear as the water but it's hot as fire
That may be true but I'm telling you
A gla** can't hold Sa**afras
So tell all the neighborhood boys
I'm the one that's making all the noise
Cause a little cup of tea knocked the heart out of me
And that cup of tea was Sa**afras
First time I kissed her in the city park
Bells started ringing and it got dark
The army and the navy couldn't keep the people calm
They thought it was a hydrogen bomb
Next day I kissed her in the swimming hole
I kissed her in the water and dontcha know
The steam from the water rose high as the sky
And the old swimming hole went dry
So tell all the neighborhood boys
I'm the one that's making all the noise
Cause a little cup of tea knocked the heart out of me
And that cup of tea was Sa**afras
I'm very sorry gotta go now
Me and my baby gotta take a vow
Gonna get married gonna raise a family
Gonna raise 'em on Sa**afras tea
So tell all the neighborhood boys
I'm the one that's making all the noise
Cause a little cup of tea knocked the heart out of me
And that cup of tea was Sa**afras
A little cup of tea knocked the heart out of me
And that cup of tea was Sa**afras
