1956 Screamin' Jay Hawkins: Down in the valley on a foggy [...] rock; Stood a crazy little demon blowin' his top; Fire in his eyes and smoke from his head; You gotta be real cool to hear the words he said; He did a MAMMAMMBL...; That cat was mad!; He had steam in his soul for the one he loves so; He had death on his mind 'cause my demon let him go; Gonna run through the world till he understands his pain; Somebody help him get his demon home again; MAMMAMMBL...; That cat, that cat was mad! Yeah; [piano / guitar solo]; He made the sky turn green, he made the grass turn red; He even put pretty hair on granma's bald head; He did the moon back up, he even pushed back time; Took the tooty out of fruity, had the devil drinkin' wine; MAMMAMMBL...; That cat was mad!; [saxophone solo]; His demon felt good 'cause she finally got across; To the crazy little demon that a woman's still above; Down in the valley on a foggy [...]; You can still hear this demon blowin' his top; He did a MAMMAMMBL...; That cat, that cat was ma-aaad!; He pushed back night, brought in afternoon; He even made Leap Year jump over the moon; He took the 4th of July and he put it in May; He took this morning, bought back yesterday; MAMMAMMBL...; That cat was mad, huh!; Huh ha ha ha!; Ooh!
