I, I can't see you, but I know that you're out there
It's that little voice, that same little voice at all of the concerts
Of the guy in the back of the room
It's going, "Weh-ne-heh, hehn-weh-ni-heh-ni-heh mini-mini-heh mini-hehn"
Coupla years ago, there was a guy that used to come to all the concerts on the East Coast
I swore I heard him every night for a month, there he was somewhere in the audience
An' he would โ it's this little voice, and he would say
"Freak me out, Frank! Freak me out! Freak me out, Frank!"
OK, here we go! Arf, arf, weh-ne-heh, arf
Ruthie-Ruthie
Where did you go?
Oh, Ruthie-Ruthie, yeah yeah yeah wow wow wow wow
Where did you go?
Last night at Chatham Center
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
I wanna tell ya a story
Right after Ruth got through barfin'
She pushed her tray out the door
Xerox men came crashin' in, said
Ruthie-Ruthie
Where did you go?
(What did you do, now what did you do?)
Ruthie-Ruthie
(Oh yeah)
What did you do? (Where did you go, go?)
Lookit here!
Ruthie had on a thin nightgown
She wasn't feelin' very well, no no no no
She pushed her tray out the door
Some guy tried to come in
She kicked him in the nuts
He said, "Oh, oh, oh, oh!"
Ruthie-Ruthie
What did you do?
(Now, what did you do? What did you... what did you do?)
Ruthie-Ruthie
(Ruthie-Ruthie, that was the best thing anybody could do)
What did you do, now?
Well, we have another song for you that goes far beyond Louie-Louie
Ruthie-Ruthie, or even Brian-Brian
This song is so advanced it takes us all the way from 1955 directly to approximately 1957
Which is when it should have been written, but actually it was written about 1970
This is a song, we'd like to dedicate this song to Marty, our road manager
Who has a fondness for the canine species, and the orifice attendant thereto
