Verse 1,

Got a badge, a Red Rider at Rocket Camp out at Mohawk Peak

Lookin’ for jailbirds left and right tryin’a knock ‘em up out the trees
Everybody I know’s watchin’ Clint, we all like watchin’ Clint,

[Hiiiiii]
All the lil snaps wanna be like Clint, they all wanna be like Clint
But I wanna be like Lee Van Cleef; ya know I wanna be like Lee

Whatever happened to Lee Van Cleef; whatever happened to Lee?

Verse 2,

A yellow Studebaker with a 302, I see the Green Naugahyde

He put a coupla dings in that pickup truck, a few more dents in his pride
At Hilltop Drive-In they’re watchin’ Clint, they all like watchin’ Clint

[Hiiiiii]
All the babies scream they wanna see ol’ Clint, they all wanna see ol’ Clint
But I wanna see Lee Van Cleef, ya know I’d like to see ol’ Lee

Whatever happened to Lee Van Cleef, whatever happened to Lee?

Verse 3,

Now the Studebaker’s gone, Lee’s passed on, Clint’s still sharp as can be

Hilltop Drive-In is an Auto Mall, but no one’s built over Lee
He’ll get a kick outta watchin’ Clint, we all get a kick outta Clint

[Hiiiiii]
But Lee never been none quite like Clint, there’s really only one Clint
But I really did like Lee Van Cleef, I sure did really like Lee

Whatever happened to Lee Van Cleef, whatever happened to Lee?

(Instrumental Break)

Outro/Verse 4,

We still get a kick outta watchin’ Clint, we all get a kick outta Clint

[Hiiiiii]
There ain’t never been one quite like Clint, there’s really only one Clint
I always did like Lee Van Cleef, always did like Lee

Nobody’s steely like Lee Van Cleef, whatever happened to Lee?

Whatever happened to Lee Van Cleef? Don’t forget about Lee.

(end)
