Man with a big cigar and a big ol' diamond ring
Said he'd make me a superstar, who cares if you can't sing
He just cut me in for a little piece
He say it's easy, you just need plenty of grease
Hustler from New York City said he had the deal for me
Told me it cost me nothing, now nothing's usually free
He told me he'd give me a brand new release
He say it's easy, you just need plenty of grease
The bigger they come, the harder you fall
You better get off quickly though, if you're gonna get off at all
'Fore they take you for a ride, take you for a ride
Lick a little grease while it's light
The groupies out in 'Frisco, they could tell I was in pain
Told me they could show me how to play the old ball game
You buy a cake, honey, you're bound to get a piece
They say it's easy, you just need plenty of grease, ah
Shoe fit you can wear it, if it don't just grin and bear it
We'll use it, just release it
And if it don't fit we can grease it
The bigger they come, the harder you fall
You better get off quickly though, if you're gonna get off at all
'Fore they take you for a ride, take you for a ride
Lick a little grease while it's light

Now if someone wants to grease it, tell them you don't need the help
You just slip on half a piece and brother, grease it for yourself
You bite your hand, you're bound to feed the beast
It's easy, you just need plenty of grease, oh
The bigger they come, the harder you fall
You better get off quickly though, if you're gonna get off at all
'Fore they take you for a ride, take you for a ride
Lick a little grease while it's light
Lick a little grease while it's light
