lyrics

Old Rasputin liked to kiss & pinch the girls
Said you can't go to Heaven if you don't give sin a whirl
There ain't no shame in this old thing
But all the people & the mothers they sang
Old Rasputin liked to kiss & pinch the girls

Get back, get out you Holy Devil
You don't know God, you just know evil
Spreading your lies like they's poppy seeds
One day you'll pay for all these evil deeds
Get back, get out you Holy Devil

Old Rasputin liked to walk & to ramble
He had bright gray eyes & beard like a bramble
He'd tramp for miles in his bare feet
Preach about love to the people he'd meet
Old Rasputin liked to walk & to ramble

Old Rasputin left his wife & children often
His eyes'd flash wild & he'd go out walkin'
Made his way to Petersburg
Most of them people just thought him absurd
Old Rasputin left his wife & children often
