| Song Lyrics: |
Been on the street all day
I've been all over town
Gonna be on my feet some more, you know I can't sit down
Because my fat ass itches
My fat ass itches
My fat ass itches
And oh, I can't be livin' thisaway
Old boy come up to me
Say, Buddy, you got a match?
I said, I don't have time right now
You know I gotta scratch
Because my fat ass itches
My fat ass itches
My fat ass itches
And oh, I can't be livin' thisaway
I'm ridin' in the subway
And ooh, I gotta scratch
A cop slaps on the handcuffs
And say, Boy, you can't do that
Just 'cause your fat ass itches
Your fat ass itches
Your fat ass itches
But oh, you can't be livin' thataway
Well, I used to have a woman
But I couldn't love her right
Said, Honey, please excuse me
And come back tomorrow night
Because my fat ass itches
My fat ass itches
My fat ass itches
And oh, I can't be livin' thisaway
Oh Lord, I've tried Preparation H, hot bath, high-fiber diet, yoga, meditation and prayer meetings. But nothing will relieve this nagging itch. I fear it will be with me until my last dyin' day.
....Baby, you don't know what discomfort is.
Aaaaaaaaah!

fiogf49gjkf0d On April 17, 2005, Dr. Demento introduced "My Fat Ass Itches" this way:
“Think of the truly legendary giants of blues, like Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker, Blind Lemon Jefferson, Bessie Smith, B.B. King. Well, none of them ever made a blues quite like this one: Ken Turetzky.”
