I was strollin' down the sidewalk with my girl by my side
When a great big hunk a fella' came and pushed me aside
I said "hey Bud I spose you think it's some kind of joke"
The next thing I remember he was jumpin' on my throat
With my last few breaths I said, "hey, Bud can't you see"
"That you started bringin' out the yella in me"
Now this fella rose above me and he started to grin
So I used what little strength I had and stuck one on his chin
He tore off the arm that did it and he threw it aside
And for a while I lost the sight in both of my eyes
I didn't have to say a word my girlfriend could see
That this fella started bringing out the yella in me
Now, I had to show this fella that I couldn't be beat
So I tried to make a stand there while I still had my feet
I think I made the wrong move and his patience wore thin
Cause it took three surgeons day and night to graft back my skin
About this time I was shoutin' from the top of the tree
That this fella started bringin' out the yella in me
My advice to you my friend is that if you ever see
A fella walkin' down the street and he's six foot three
Be sure to try and pa** him walk on down the other side
Cause if you don't he'll leave you in a state of suicide
I just didn't listen look what happened to me
Now this fella's finished bringin' out the Yella in me
