[rpt intro]
Jemima Surrender, I'm gonna give it to you, I'll bring over my Fender And I'll play all night for you. There's a bird on my head And his mouth won't talk, You know he laughs just like a goose, But looks like a hawk Jemima, you know what I'm try'n to say, Meet me in front and we'll fly away.

Jemima Surrender, I'm gonna give it to you, Ain't no pretender, gonna see my tattoo; I hand you my rod and you hand me that line, That's what you do, now, we ain't doing much fishin' Or drinkin' any wine.
Sweet Jemima, if I were king I'd fix you up with a diamond ring.
