Hippy Gumbo Lyrics - Marc Bolan

Met a man he was nice 

said his name was paradise 

Didn't realise at the time 

that his face and mind were mine 

Hippy Gumbo he's no good 

Chop him up for firewood 

It seemed good and it seemed right 

that I should dig him on the night 

but in the morning with the sun he pulled an automatic gun 

He blew my soul, he blew my brain 

he said I could not do the same 

Hippy Gumbo he's no good 

Chop him up for firewood 

Hippy Gumbo he's no good 

Chop him up and burn the wood.
