The Lyrics

What can I say? "The Dukes of Hazzard" was fun to watch then and it's fun to poke fun at now. What were we thinkin'? --Oh yeah, I remember now; all the fellers was thinkin' 'bout Daisy . . . ;-) --Ol' John Brown
Wears a stupid hat on top
He oughta be ashamed
Not a good rent-a-cop
And Cletus was his name

CHORUS:

He got it
Yeah, Roscoe, he got it
I am your Cletus,
Sidekick for hire
Flash on fire?!?
Well, I am your Cletus,
Sidekick for hire
Just got fired . . .

His weapon was his failing mind
Uncle Jessie went mad
Sharp as a mud ball was
Coordination was so bad
Wah!

He got it
Yeah, Enos, he got it
I am your Cletus,
Built like a tire
Crossed a wire
Well, I am your Cletus,
Sidekick for hire
Boss Hogg retire?

(Cletus)

He got it
Yeah, Cletus, he got it
I am your Cletus,
Stuck in the mire
What's on fire?
Well, I am your Cletus,
Sidekick for hire
Cop on fire!

Goddess on the mountain top
Shorts were her flame
The deputies fell in love
And Daisy was her name
Wah!

They got it
Yeah, Daisy, they got it
I am your Cletus,
Or was that Enos?
Hat's on fire!
Well, I am your Cletus,
Sidekick for hire
Car's on fire!!!
(Was Enos his name?)

(Fade out . . .)

Gen'ral Lee
he's got it . . .

Not bad - a few chuckles and some nice word play and rhyme there.
