[Johnny:] Well I stole the Hope diamond / hopin' I could shut your mouth
[June:] But how am I gonna wear it / if I got to hide it out
[Johnny:] Oh, you big mouthed woman
[June:] You long-legged guitar pickin' man
[Both:] Well, we can work this out
[Johnny:] Uh-huh, yes ma'am, I think we can

[Instrumental chorus-guitar solo; spoken banter]

[Johnny:] Well I bought you a first class ticket / for a luxury liner cruise
[June:] I got out in that ocean / looked around and there was you
[Johnny:] Oh, you big mouthed woman
[June:] You long-legged guitar pickin' man
[Both:] Well, we can work this out
[Johnny:] Uh-huh, yes ma'am, I think we can

[Johnny:] I bought you a big long limousine
[June:] But I don't want no car / I need my lovin' every day
[Johnny:] But you're still what you are

[Johnny:] You're just a big mouthed woman
[June:] You're a long-legged guitar pickin' man
[Both:] Well, we can work this out, uh-huh
[Johnny:] Yes ma'am, I think we can

[Singers banter to fade]
