You haven't been spanked since you were ten
But your bad attitude has come back again
I think it's time I put your act on ice
You're gonna get an old-fashioned lesson
And you're gonna start acting nice

You think just because you're thirteen
That you're too big for the spanking scene
But you embarrassed me all over town
And if our family were a circus
You'd be a clown by now

Young man, your hide needs tanning
Worse than it ever did
You've been actin' like a little devil
Gonna treat you like a little kid
(oh yeah)
Your hide needs tanning after all this time
And when we're through no misbehavin'
Will be on your mind
Your hide needs tanning
(yeah yeah yeah)
Your hide needs tanning
(yeah yeah yeah)

Don't interrupt me, you just shush
The filth from your mouth would make Satan blush
And if I wasn't sure what that smirk's about
Your insolence just now
Leaves me with no more doubt

You should hear what the neighbors say
Your misbehavior gets worse each day
And if it doesn't stop
Our reputation will fade a-way

Young man, your hide needs tanning
Worse than it ever did
You've been actin' like a little devil
Gonna treat you like a little kid
(oh yeah)
Your hide needs tanning after all these years
We're gonna bare that little butt
And you'll be spanked to tears

Your hide needs tanning
(yeah yeah yeah)
Your hide needs tanning
(yeah yeah yeah)
Why're you still standing?
(yeah yeah yeah)
Come get your fanning
(yeah yeah yeah)
Right now!
