Where was nero when rome burned
He wasn't worried 'bout the flames
The cat didn't play no fiddle
He had his mind on better games
He was down in the cellar
With a girl he called b-betty lou
Drinking juice from the grape vine
Chianti BC '52
The roman city was burnin', but nero didn't face it alone
He was soakin the bone, just soakin' the bone
He was soakin' the bone, he was soakin' it
Napoleon he said to josie
"I'm gonna rule the world for a start"
Josephine said, "hey nappy, you're crazy
Would you rather shake it down bonaparte"
The world was there to be conquered,
Napoleon, he couldn't leave home
'cause he was soakin' the bone
He was soakin' the bone (2x)
He was soakin' it
About the spanish armada
It didn't faze sir francis drake
20,000 gun-totin' galleons
But frankie didn't quiver or quake
He was down on the beach head
Rollin' in the pebbles and stones
He was soakin' the bone (3x)
He was soakin' it
He was soakin' the bone (3x)
He was soakin' it, oh
(soakin the bone, gonna' wet the whistle a little bit)
