RIP: JIMMY CASTOR


1947 - Jan.16, 2012: Famous in the 70s for the song 'Troglodyte' which introduced the world to Bertha Butt of the Butt sisters. Sorta tacky now, but it had a great beat and was quite funny back in the day:
"Troglodyte"
(As recorded by Jimmy Castor Bunch) JIMMY CASTOR BUNCH What we're gonna do right here is go back Way back into time When the only people that existed were Troglodytes Cave men, cave woman, Neanderthal, Troglodytes Imagine the average cave man at home Listening to his stereo Sometimes he'd get up and dance He'd move something like this "dance dance" He'd get tired of dancing alone and look in the mirror And say "gotta find a woman" "Gotta find a woman, gotta find a woman, gotta find a woman" Then he'd go down to the lake where all the girls Would be swimming or washing clothes or something And he'd grab one by the hair You can't do that today fellas 'Cause it might come off You have a hand full of hair And she'd be swimming away from you This was a big woman, big Her name was Bertha, Bertha Butt -- one of the Butt sisters She looked down on him And started to crush him Then she began to play him He looked up at her and said "sock it to me" "Sock it to me, sock it to me, sock it to me" She looked down on him And said "I'll sock it to you daddy" And you know what he said He started it all way back then I ain't gonna lie to you He said "right on, right on" Hot pants, hot pants Uh uh uh.
