King Tut Songtext
von Steve Martin and the Steep Canyon Rangers

Now when he was a young man,
He never thought he′d see
(King Tut)
People stand in line to see the boy king.
(King Tut)
How'd you get so funky?
(Funky Tut)
Did you do the monkey?
Born in Arizona,
Moved to Babylonia
(King Tut).

Now, if I′d known
They'd line up just to see him,
I'd taken all my money
And bought me a museum.
(King Tut)
Buried with a donkey
(Funky Tut)


He′s my favorite honkey!
Born in Arizona,
Moved to Babylonia
(King Tut)
(Tut, Tut)
Dancin′ by the Nile,

(Disco Tut, Tut)
The ladies love his style,
(Boss Tut, Tut)
Rockin' for a mile
(Rockin′ Tut, Tut)
He ate a crocodile.

He gave his life for tourism.

Golden idol!
He's an Egyptian.

They′re selling you!


Now, when I die,
Now don't think I′m a nut,
Don't want no fancy funeral,
Just one like ole king Tut.
(King Tut)
He coulda won a Grammy,
(King Tut)
Buried in his Jammies,
(King Tut)
Born in Arizona, moved to Babylonia,
He was born in Arizona, got a condo made of stone-a,
(King Tut)
