Lyrics
I had this bitch, you see
She made lies to me
Her deceit, ah, it gave me a chill
But, I found out, now
That baby, that baby ice dog
She said we would wed
In Mongolian country
Lilies shoot free
But, she was a-stoning me
In the mountains, no
Her intent it was all too clear
All too clear
It was quite a sin
How the ice caved in
I was numb, I could not assist
Baby ice went down
To the cold, cold, cold ground
I said, "Baby...that's the breaks!"
Turn me 'round like a broke down hound now
Crossing me once too often
Now she's bound for a lower station
She crossing me once too often
Hey baby
Don't cross me, baby
I'm bad
And now, the ladies
All fear this Mongolian man
With ice down his face
You know I get involved
In unnatural acts
With the aid of my cold, cold stare
They'd like to make it
With my big black dog
But they just don't know how to ask
You know they'd like to try
Anything that comes into their minds
Ah, freeze on now, baby
(Freeze on, freeze on, freeze on) Bone to bone
(Freeze on, freeze on, freeze on)
(Freeze on) Freeze on
(Freeze on) Freeze on
(Freeze on, bone)
(Freeze on) Freeze on
(Freeze on) Freeze on
(Freeze on)
