Captain Quickdraw Lyrics by Commodores

Hot on the Tracks

0

Hey, good morning
Hey, good afternoon
You're now listening to your Captain Quickdraw
Station KDJ 37-99
We’re broadcasting to you from the command module
Commodore steamship in Commodore country
We just unkeyed

Modulating from a real super station
Put together by government regulation
Screaming eagle and a Goldie, 104
Waiting on that skip so we can
Go coast to coast

Hey, good gracious alive
Hey, about a break for that first mama one time?
Hey, about it first mama, up there around that Watergate City?
Hey, around that Watergate City, up around the big house
Hey, the big white house up on the hill
Hey, we just unkeyed

Hey, standing by, waiting for your return
Hey, get out of that cotton picker
Hey, cotton picker, get off my ass
You do hear me breaking for that first
Hey, mama, hey, you talk
Hey, when your name is called not before
Hey, we gon' take a stoodby
Hey and listen all over again

Hate to tell you we're in the denial
All because of that doggone had to die
Pump it up and point your beams this way
So Captain Quickdraw can hear what you say

Hey, 10-4, first mama
Hey, 10-4
Hey, we definitely appreciate the comeback
Hey, Good Gracious alive
Hey, ’cause we didn't know whether we were
Making the trip, hey, up to your fair city
Hey, but since we are
Hey, we do wanna pass the numbers to you
All the 73s, 88s, 44s

Hey, and Good Gracious alive
Above all, hey, a good day today
A better day tomorrow
And a most prosperous and productive year to come
We just unkeyed

Hey, about it, shaggy dog?
Hey, about that shaggy dog one time?
Hey, we breaking standing by
Hey, cheer, oh, uh, mercy standby quickdraw
Uh, some cotton picker keying up
Cotton picker

All you are is a constant aggravation
That's because of your ale-gating station
If you continue, we will not let you hear
Better still you're on probation for one year

Hey, mercy quickdraw, uh, get back and speak
Hey, Good Gracious alive, shaggy dog
Hey all we wanted to do
Hey, was just find out how you're feeling, hey, this fine afternoon
And wanted to know also
Hey, have you seen that cotton picking silver dollar?
Hey, you got the one t-town, silver dollar here, a break break
Hey, Quickdraw, you ain't gonna hear no silver dollar
Until you come back to that old atom ant .come on

Hey, Good Gracious alive
Hey, Mr. Atom ant, hey Good Gracious
Hey, the strong man, hey of the ant land
Hey, atom ant, hey, we gon' have to take a stoodby
Hey, for this cotton picking red baron cutting my coax

Hey, come on, red baron talk
Hey, there, good buddy, I just wanted to get radio check
How you read me, come on now
Spring for doggone Jack Benny
Hey, you got one Jack Benny here
Hey, anybody hear me about smokey the clown
