Now you may see two happy people loving together
I'll tell you why that is
Or some little girl looks real good in a real tight sweater
I will tell you why that is
Now your pal from prison just wrote you a real fine letter
I'll tell you why that is
The diamond ring looks real good on my pinky finger
I will tell you, tell me why that is
Natalie Orange belongs in jail
I can tell you why that is
Some people take some people's life
I will tell you why that's right
When the girls come looking for love
They look for the guys in the band
I can tell you why that is
I'm having a ball being the know-it-all
Standing on top of my little scale
That's why I am who I am, baby
'Cause I know all these things
So step right up and shake the hand of the man who is the know-it-all
I know a lot of things
Besides that, I can sing
How come you think I got the name Know It All, Crackhead?
You think that's just a fluke?
I don't think so
Could be
I know why everything's happening
Stick around and I'll tell you why
Now you see some guys out on the street
And they're just wild about chicks
I'll tell you why that is
Some guys, they ain't boys, just like to go out and play dirty tricks
But I can tell you why that is
You know why that is
Jesus Christ and God and all them cats, they don't know everything
Besides that, they can't even sing
Rich men get all the women and fun
Would you believe you're looking at one?
That's why I am who I am, baby
'Cause I know all these things
I'm willing to listen to you if you're willing to listen to me
That's for sure
But you know you gotta sing it for me
You gotta get up and sing
