Lyrics
I'm gonna give you forty days to get back home
I done called up a gypsy woman on the telephone
I'm gonna send out a worldwide hoo-doo
That'd be the very thing that suits you
I'm gonna say that she'll be back home in forty days

Woo, forty days (forty days)
Woo, forty days (forty days)
I'm gonna see that she'll be back home in forty days (forty days)
Before I send out a worldwide hoo-doo
That'd be the very thing that suits you
I'm gonna see that she'll be back home in forty days (forty days)

Really talkin' to the judge in private early this mornin'
He nearly took me to the sheriff's office to sign a warnin'
They gonna throw a fraud charge again' ya
That'd be the very thing that'll send ya
I'm gonna see that she'll be back home in forty days

Woo, forty days (forty days)
Woo, forty days (forty days)
I'm gonna see that she'll be back home in forty days (forty days)
I'm gonna send out a worldwide hoo-doo
That'd be the very thing that suits you
I'm gonna see that she'll be back home in forty days (forty days)

Oh, forty days (forty days)
Woo, forty days (forty days)
I'm gonna see that she'll be back home in forty days (forty days)
I'm gonna throw a fraud charge again' ya
That'd be the very thing that'll send ya
I'm gonna see that she'll be back home in forty days (forty days)
