R-A-S-S-L-I-N by Glen Goza Lyrics

Genre: country | Year: 2021

Well, the boss called me up and said "Come into work"
I just hung up on that slave driving jerk
I'm going to rasslin'
Going to rasslin'!

You think I'd rather be sweating on the dock
Or watching somebody use a hammerlock
I'm going to rasslin'
Going to rasslin'!

R-A-S-S-L-I-N, that's rasslin'
R-A-S-S-L-I-N, that's rasslin'
I love to watch The Missing Link bang his head on a corner post
And the rumper bumper Butt Butt delivered by the Iceman
The Freebirds, Roberts, Hayes and Gordy, but what I like the most
Is Kerry delivering the Iron Claw as only the von Erichs can!

The boss called again and said "It's time-and-a-half"
"You'll come in tonight", I just had to laugh
I'm going to rasslin'
Going to rasslin'!
R-A-S-S-L-I-N, that's rasslin'
R-A-S-S-L-I-N, that's rasslin'

Well, my girlfriend called, and friend, she could
Be a model for Frederick's of Hollywood
But she was hasslin'
Really hasslin'
Said I could come over early and stay real late
But I told her, "Honey, if we have a date"
"We're going to rasslin'!"
Going to rasslin'!

R-A-S-S-L-I-N, that's rasslin'
R-A-S-S-L-I-N, that's rasslin'
Kevin von Erich when he's really high-flying
I like to see Ric Flair when he's out there strutting
André the Giant must be 7'9"
I wouldn't miss this for a dozen girls and I wouldn't miss this for nothing

I said "Honey, I hope you ain't hurt"
She said "I'm putting on my rasslin' shirt"
I'm going to rasslin'
Going to rasslin'!

R-A-S-S-L-I-N, that's rasslin'
R-A-S-S-L-I-N, that's rasslin'
Well, last night I dreamed my life was over
There were golden streets and fields of clover
And the lights
They were dazzling
I looked for old St. Peter at the pearly gates
I found a note that said "I won't be too late"
I'm going to rasslin'
Going to rasslin'!

R-A-S-S-L-I-N, that's rasslin'
R-A-S-S-L-I-N, that's rasslin'

There's Gentleman Chris Adams with his superkick in place
Young Mike von Erich with his own Iron Claw
And I'll never forget the classic matches of the '70s and '80s
Two champions, Harley Race and David von Erich

St. Peter told me as he let me in
"From now on every Monday and Friday, Glen"
"We're going to rasslin'!"
Going to rasslin'!
R-A-S-S-L-I-N, that's rasslin'
R-A-S-S-L-I-N, that's rasslin'

Well, if I had known this was going to happen
I wouldn't have bought these advance tickets
By the way, St. Pete, are you sure these wings will fit in a ringside seat?
Is Fritz coming up here any time soon?
