Verse 1:

E
Like a Big Woolly Mammoth

You gotta wear that coat Like his big brother Joseph Yeah, walkin' in the desert sand Like a doughboy in the trenches You gotta lay down low Like a Big Woolly Mammoth You gotta wear that coat Chorus:

E                                 A
You ain't got time to worry 'bout mass extinction

E                               A
Just try and get along with the human beings

E                       C
Big Wooly Mammoth gonna wear that coat

                           B
In the middle of the summertime

Verse 2: You got a woman in the city She got a brand new coat Sometimes I feel like an evolutionary reject Yeah, livin' in a high-tech world Like a cool armadillo You gotta lay down low Like the Big Woolly Mammoth You gotta wear that coat (Chorus) Jam over A (JB transition riff) Verse 3: Another ice age is comin' You better wear your coat Somebody throw me a fire So we can burn this city down Like a doughboy in the trenches You gotta lay down low Like the Big Woolly Mammoth You gotta wear that coat Last Chorus: Everybody needs some weapons of mass destruction Gonna kill you with a virus and a dose of radiation Like a Big Wooly Mammoth gonna wear that coat In the middle of the summertime Jam over A
