Skeeters'll get you if your screens ain't tight
They're bigger than robins and they're wild tonight
Skeeters'll get you if your screens ain't tight
And your screens ain't tight at all
ย
Lorena, won't you come and scratch my back a while?
I'm leavin' but you know I'm comin' back in style
Drive in a long white foreign car
Dressed like a foreign movie star
Think how happy you'd be
If you took a little tip from me
Skeeters'll get you if your screens ain't tight
They're bigger than robins and they're wild tonight
Skeeters'll get you if your screens ain't tight
And your screens ain't tight at all
ย
Lorena, come and see this truth I've found
You were missin' on the day they passed good sense around
If you had any sense, then you'd have to agree
If you had any sense, then you couldn't love me
Give me a sweet little kiss
And just remember this
Skeeters'll get you if your screens ain't tight
They're bigger than robins and they're wild tonight
Skeeters'll get you if your screens ain't tight
And your screens ain't tight at all
ย
Skeeters'll get you if your screens ain't tight
They're bigger than robins and they're wild tonight
Skeeters'll get you if your screens ain't tight
And your screens ain't tight at all
No, your screens ain't tight at all
