Lyrics:
Now way down in the valley lived a farmer and his wife The wife was makin' with the pastry with her fists and a knife She cut a fancy little figure and she slapped it in a pan Sayin‘, “Ain't he cute? My little Gingerbread Man!” Well then she slips him in the oven for a quarter of an hour And she's rappin' on the phone while he gets browner and browner Then she hops into the kitchen and she pops the oven door And her Gingerbread Man jumps onto the floor He's jumpin' up and clickin' heels and givin' her five She never knew a bunch of dough could carry on such jive But when she tried to get him back into the pan once more Her little Gingerbread Man was out of the door [Refrain :] He's sayin' “Run, lady run! Run as fast as you can Nobody ever catches me, the Rappin' Gingerbread Man Yeah, run, lady, run! Run as fast you can Nobody ever gonna catch the Rappin' Gingerbread Man So now he's running up the road and headin' straight for the corn And there's Little Boy Blue just a-blowin' his horn Little Blue he drops his axe and screws his eyes up tight He says “That ol' corn liquor must be messin' with my sight!” Now Ginger says, “There's nothin' wrong with your two eyes. You're lookin' at the coolest creature runnin' on two thighs I run away from my ol' lady and her bakin' pan And I can run away from you cause I'm the Gingerbread Man [Refrain :] He hollers, “Run, boy, run! Run as fast as you can! Nobody ever catches me, the Rappin' Gingerbread Man Better run, boy, run! Run as fast as you can Nobody ever gonna catch the Rappin' Gingerbread Man!” Well he made it through the corn but took another track When he came upon a place known as the Chicken Shack He saw the joint was really shakin' so he popped the door He'd found a groovy little place that had a dancin' floor He was about to sit himself and get a bite to eat When the fat bartender said, “Get outta that seat!” “I don't serve no biscuits here in my place, But my big belly says it's hungry so I'll eat your face!” [Refrain :] Said Ginger, “Run, Fatty run! Run as fast as you can! Nobody ever catches me, ‘cause I'm the Gingerbread Man!” He said, “Run, Fatty, run! Just as fast as you can! Nobody ever gonna catch the Rappin' Gingerbread Man! Now he was running from the fatty and the farmer's wife Away from Little Boy Blue and running for his life He was starting in to thinking that he'd won the race When the river suddenly was looming in his face He heard the feet pounding powder all along the ridge And now he's looking fran-ti-cally for the nearest bridge He heard a mumbly grumbly voice coming up from the ground And Mr. Alligator said, “I'll see you safe and sound.” “Just jump up on my back, Jack! We'll set sail! I'll bet you never had a ride upon a gator's tail-“ “If you will promise not to eat me,” said Gingerbread I'd even take a ride upon an alligator's head!” “But you must swear it, Mr. Gator!” “I cross my heart!” And so he hopped upon his head and Gator did depart [Refrain :] And he cried, “Run, people, run! Run as fast as you can! Nobody ever catches me, cause I'm the Gingerbread Man Yeah, run people, run! Just as fast as you can! Nobody ever gonna catch the Rappin' Gingerbread Man! About the middle of the river Gator rolled his eyes He said, “Yo, Mr. Breadman, I must confide That there's a price you gotta pay me for this here ride So when I open up my mouth you'd better climb inside.” Ginger cried, “Lordy Mighty! But you promised me!” And Gator said, “A gator be what gators gotta be!” And then he opened up his choppers sayin' “Well, bless my soul!” He took the Rappin' Gingerbread Man and swallowed him whole He ran his tongue around his gator lips with a slurp And then his gator belly gave a giant gator burp He gave his mighty tail a flip, gave a contented sigh He grinned a nasty little grin and then he did cry, [Refrain :] “Hey, Rappin' Gingerbread Man! You're so slick! But the Rappin' Mr. Gator he's lightening quick! Yo, Rappin' Gingerbread Man! You're so cool! But the Rappin' Mr. Gator, he's no one's fool! Hey, Rappin' Gingerbread Man, where'd you go? I must have something in my ears, can't hear you rappin' no mo‘!”
