If you be my customer

I'll let you have it on an easy plan

I do my ramblin' at midnight

An I don't be seen in the day

I do my ramblin' at midnight

I don't be seen in the day

While ev'rything is quiet an easy

Mr

Grinder can have his way

I got so many customers

It takes me a week to get around

I got so many customers

It takes me a week to get around

But you need not be uneasy baby

Mr Grinder won't let you down

'Well alright then'

'Ev'ry tip of the tray

You'll find that the grinder

Play it to you this way'

'Well I'm gonna play these blues

'Till I see miss ora lee'

'She's my special customer'

'Yas yas yas yas yas

If you wanna see me baby

You better see me while you can

You wanna see me baby

You had better see me while you can

Because I'm a very busy fella

You know they call me the Grinder Man
