Rooty Toot Toot - John Mellencamp

    Got my hands on a little bit of dough
    So I went to the grocery store
    And got some steaks to go
    went by and picked up my gal, Teddi Jo
    We had ourselves a picnic
    Beside a dirt road

    Rooty toot toot
    Rooty toot toot
    We had it made in the shade
    Like a ball through the hoop
    Spinnin' and tumblin' inside this hoola hoop
    Livin' and learnin'
    Rooty toot toot

    We laid out a blanket
    And started a fire
    Had the radio playin'
    From inside the car
    I took off my shirt and kicked off my shoes
    She read the paper
    And told me the news
    She said, there's a lot of people out there
    Who are at the end of their rope
    Sometimes baby
    You've got to lay low

    Rooty toot toot
    Rooty toot toot
    We had it made in the shade
    Like a ball through the hoop
    Spinnin' and tumblin' inside this hoola hoop
    Livin' and learnin'
    Rooty toot toot

    We stayed there all day
    We both got us some real good suntans
    I thought that was ok
    Sometimes life can be so grand

    We were gettin' ready
    To shake out of that place
    When the Illinois state trooper
    Got in my face
    He said, You're on private property
    But once he cooled down he was ok
    Sometimes you're golden, man
    That's all I got to say

    Rooty toot toot
    Rooty toot toot
    We had it made in the shade
    Like a ball through the hoop
    Spinnin' and tumblin' inside this hoola hoop
    Livin' and learnin'
    Rooty toot toot
