Gonna scrape the trouble off my boots!
    As they were dancing in the evening
  And the light shone through the trees
  This girl my eye was following
  Asked the band to play her a beat
    Singin' she'd do that long time jerk
  She hit me where it hurts
  Ohhh your heart
  Now my heart will burst
  Oh no
    Ah, but it took me back to that wonderland
  I witnessed long ago
  Babbling words of preachers
  Sayin'- "Don't bury me no more"
    Ohh...
    And I've forgotten how to worry
  And I don't know how to run
  Against the odds I realize
  This struggle could be won!
    We dance
    Long time jerk
  She did it to me first
  Ohhh my heart
  With that long time jerk
    Ah! Say..... Do that long time jerk.
    Bring on those tapes from the past
  They make you look better in a mirror
  Feel that long time jerkin'
  Between the taker and the giver
    Feel that...
    Long time jerk
  She hit me where it hurts
  Oh I felt my heart
  Now my heart will burst
    I've forgotten how to worry
  And I don't know how to run
  Against the odds I realize
  This struggle could be fun!
    Oh, through lanes and streets and houses
  And reversing rush of time
  She made me re-invent the world
  Before inventing time
  (Before inventing time)
    Long time jerk
  Oh, she hit me where it hurts
  Ohhhhh my heart
  Long time jerk
    Long, long, long, long, long
  Long time
  Long time jerk
