[Chorus]
Hot tamales and they're red hot
Yes she's got 'em for sale
Hot tamales and they're red hot
Yes she's got 'em for sale
I got a girl, she's long and tall
Sleeps in the kitchen with her feet in the hall
Hot tamales and they're red hot
Yes she's got 'em for sale
Yes she's got 'em for sale

Hot tamales and they're red hot
Yes she's got 'em for sale
Hot tamales and they're red hot
Yes she's got 'em for sale
Got two for nickel, four for a dime
Won't sell you more and ain't none of mine
Hot tamales and they're red hot
Yes she's got 'em for sale
Yes she's got 'em for sale

Hot tamales and they're red hot
Yes she's got 'em for sale
Hot tamales and they're red hot
Yes she's got 'em for sale
I got a letter from a girl in a room
You got something good, bring it on soon
Hot tamales and they're red hot
Yes she's got 'em for sale
Yes she's got 'em for sale

Hot tamales and they're red hot
Yes she's got 'em for sale
Hot tamales and they're red hot
Yes she's got 'em for sale
That billy goat backed in a bumblebee nest
Ever since that he can't take his rest
Hot tamales and they're red hot
Yes she's got 'em for sale
Yes she's got 'em for sale

Hot tamales and they're red hot
Yes she's got 'em for sale
Hot tamales and they're red hot
Yes she's got 'em for sale
Me and my babe bought a V-8 Ford
We dropped that thing on the runnin' board
Hot tamales and they're red hot
Yes she's got 'em for sale
Yes she's got 'em for sale

Hot tamales and they're red hot
Yes she's got 'em for sale
Hot tamales and they're red hot
Yes she's got 'em for sale
You know the monkey and the baboon playin' in the grass
Monkey stuck his finger in that old 'Good Gulf Gas' now
Hot tamales and they're red hot
Yes she's got 'em for sale
Yes she's got 'em for sale

Hot tamales and they're red hot
Yes she's got 'em for sale
Hot tamales and they're red hot
Yes she's got 'em for sale
I got a girl, say she long and tall
Sleeps in the kitchen with her feets in the hall
Hot tamales and they're red hot
Yes she's got 'em for sale
Yes she's got 'em for sale
