Man you know, my next door neighbour, keep a borrowin' all the time
My next door neighbour, keep a borrowin' all the time
Borrow so much, about to lose my mind

My next door neighbour, he keep a borrowin' all the time
My next door neighbour, it worry me all the time
It worry me so much, I'm bound to lose my mind
(You didn't have much in the first place!)

He wants to borrow a little sugar, want to borrow a little coffee,
They borrow some sugar, make the coffee sweet
They wanna borrow your broom, say they wanna sweep
They wanna borrow the clock, they want it off the wall
They wanna borrow the lawnmower to cut the grass
Wanna borrow everything even down to our flat

My next door neighbour, keep a borrowin' all the time
My next door neighbour, really worries my mind

Well they come to your home, about half past ten
They wanna borrow your suit to bury their grandpa in
I went to the door and I scratched my head
Say these doggone neighbours will borrow from the dead

My next door neighbour, keep a borrowin' all the time
I believe one day, I'm bound to lose my mind

(Mickey's Solo:)
All right, daddy! Yeah, yeah! It worries me, man!

Now they borrow two pounds, say they'll pay you back
But borrowin's all right, it's a natural fact
When they borrow your money they won't pay back
They been borrowin' from me all way in fact
Now they been borrowin' boy all of my life
I believe one day they gonna borrow my wife

My next door neighbour, keep a borrowin' all the time
Next door neighbour, keep a borrowin' all the time

(Mickey's Solo:)
