Got my hands on a little bit of dough
So i went to the crocery store
And got some steaks to go
Went by, and picked up my gal, teddi jo
We had ourselves a picnic
Beside a dirty road

Chorus:
Rooty toot toot
Rooty toot toot
We had it made in the shade
Like a bell 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"

Chorus:
Rooty toot toot
Rooty toot toot
We had it made in the shade
Like a bell through the hoop
Spinnin´ and tumblin´ inside this
Hoola hoop
Livin´ and learnin´
rooty toot toot

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

We were gettin´ ready
To shake out that place
When the illinois state trooper
Got in my face
He said, "you´re on pirvate property"
But once he cooled down, he was ok
Sometimes you´re golden, man
That´s all i got to say

Chorus:
Rooty toot toot
Rooty toot toot
We had it made in the shade
Like a bell through the hoop
Spinnin´ and tumblin´ inside this
Hoola hoop
Livin´ and learnin´
rooty toot toot
