I might be movin' to Montana soon
Just to raise me up a crop of
Dental Floss

Raisin' it up
Waxin. it down
In a little white box
That I can sell uptown

By myself I wouldn't
Have no boss,
But I'd be raisin' my lonely
Dental Floss

Raisin' my lonely
Dental Floss
Raisin' my lonely
Dental Floss

Well I just might grow me some bees
But I'd leave the sweet stuff
To somebody else . . .
(How about you there?)
But then, on the other hand I would

Keep the wax
An melt it down
Pluck the Floss
An swish it aroun'

An I would have me a crop
An it'd be on top
(Thats why I'm movin' to Montana)

Movin to Montana soon
Gonna be a Dental Floss tycoon (yes I am)
I'm movin' to Montana soon
Gonna be a mennil-toss flykune (look out)

Im pluckin the ol'
Dennil Floss
That's growin' on the prairie
Pluckin' the floss!
I plucked all day an all nite an all
Afternoon . . .

I'm ridin' a small tiny hoss
(His name is MIGHTY LITTLE)
He's a good hoss
Even though
Hes a bit dinky to strap a big saddle or
Blanket on anyway
Hes a bit dinky to strap a big saddle or
Blanket on anyway
Anyway
I'm pluckin' the ol'

Dennil Floss
Even if you think it is a little silly, folks
I don't care if you think its silly, folks
I don't care if you think its silly, folks

I'm gonna find me a horse (uhuu)
Just about this big, (yes sir)
An ride that sucker all along the border line

With a
Pair of heavy-duty
Zircon-encrusted tweezers in my hand
Every other wrangler would say
I was mighty grand

But by myself I wouldn't
Have no boss,
Cause I'd be raisin that lonely
Dental Floss

Raisin' my lonely
Dental Floss Hoopla
Raisin' my lonely
Dental Floss

Well I might
Ride along the border
With my tweezers gleamin'
In the moon-lighty night

And then I would
Get a cuppa cawfee
N give my foot a push . . .
Just me'n the pygmy pony
Over by the Dennil Floss Bush

'N then I might just sorta
Jump back on
An ride
Like a dipshit
Into the dawn to Montana

Movin' to Montana soon
(Yippy-Ya-O-Ty-Ay)
Movin' to Montana soon
(Yippy-Ya-O-Ty-Ay)
(etc. repeat)
