                      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
                                (Riff 2,2a)
                         He was down in the cellar
                     With a girl he called B-Betty Lou
                     Drinking juice from the grape vine
                               Chianti BC '52

                                        E
                       But Nero didn't face it alone
                                  (Riff 1)
                           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 Nappy you're crazy
                  Would you rather shake it down Bonaparte
                                        E
                    The world was there to be conquered,

                           He was soakin the bone
                           Just soakin' the bone

                                       E
                     Rollin' in the pebbles and stones
