(Part I) Hey everybody, did the news get around About a guy named Butcher Pete Oh, Pete just flew into this town And he's choppin' up all the women's meat [Chorus] He's hackin' and wackin' and smackin' He's hackin' and wackin' and smackin' He's hackin' and wackin' and smackin' He just hacks, wacks, choppin' that meat Butcher Pete's got a long sharp knife He starts choppin' and don't know when to stop All you fellows gotta watch your wifes Cause Pete don't care who's meat he chops Ever since Peter flew into town He's been havin' a ball Just cuttin' and choppin' for miles around Single women, married women, old maids and all Wakes up in the morning, half past five Chops from sunrise to sunset I don't see how he stays alive Meat's gonna be the death of ole Pete, yeah The police put Pete in jail Yes, he finally met his fate But when they came to pay his bail They found him choppin' up his cell mate That Butcher Pete is a crazy man Tries to chop down the wind and the rain Just hacks on anything he can get Say, turn this record over, you ain't heard nothing yet (Part II) Well, they let ole Pete out of the jail He went back to his store All the women who payed his bail Were waitin' on Pete to chop some more There's an old woman, who's ninety-two Lives down the street She said, one thing more I wanna do Is find ole Pete and let him chop my meat Pete went to church one Sunday night He gave the preacher a fit That crazy Pete started a fight When he went hackin' on the pulpit Well, they put him in jail again They tried to give him life Pete beat the case, he pleaded insane They gave him back his same ole knife Well, he got out of jail on Sunday night Monday he tightened his grip He started to China to see the sites Went nuts again and chopped up the ship Brought ole Pete back to town To electrocute him there But Pete was crazy like a clown He chopped down that electric chair He's a maniac! He don't do nothin' but hackin'
