There live a certain man in russia long ago
He was big and strong in his eyes a flamin glow
He could preach the bible like a preacher
Full of extasy and fire
But he also was the kind of teacher
Women would desire

Ra ra rasputin
Lover of the russain queen
They put some poison into his wine
Ra ra rasputin
Russia's greatest love machine
He drank it all and said I feel fine





Oh those russains
