Change your name to Miss-is Earl Scruggs
Pearl, Pearl, Pearl
You’ll get no love from Earl
This here man is such a sap
He won’t hold you on his lap
Un-less you are an ole five string ban-go
Pearl, Pearl, Pearl
He’s nut-ty as a squir-rel
If you’ll be Miss-is Scruggs
We’ll live on kiss-es and hugs
Like Ju-liet and Ro-meo
Repeat Verse One
