Ain't I Right (The True Story of Strawberry Shortcake)

"Ain't I Right" is a song written, produced, and sung by Marty Robbins in June 1966. The song appears in the True Story of Strawberry Shortcake episode "Praline Prairies" and is sung by Randolph before he leaves Porcupine Peak.

The lyrics have him badmouth those born in the wasteland, and he refers to Pie Man, The Grape Family, Foreman Poke and Captain Cackle as communists, a purple heartless bunch, two-faced politicians, and says that the Pie Man 'makes his spirit weak'.

Near the end of the song, Randolph's decision to leave is evident in the statement "Since i can't win this war with Communism, I'm out of here and I don't give a damn!"

Verse 1

 * We went down to a berry town one summer
 * And found some girls where lots of fauna thrives
 * But all my leader's wanted to plan was trouble
 * And he wanted to put misery in their lives
 * Your concern is never to be peaceful
 * And I'll say it again, though it's been often said
 * His concern is just to bring discomfort, my friend
 * And his policy is just a little red
 * Now, ain't I right?

Verse 2

 * It matters not to him how those kids suffer
 * And should they, he'd consider that a gain
 * He'll bring a lot of horror to this world without mercy
 * That's part of his Communistic gain
 * I detect a lot of Communism
 * I can see it in the things you do
 * Communism, socialism, say whatever you like
 * There's not a single difference in the two
 * Now, ain't I right?

Verse 3

 * There's nobody more crueler than a purple, heartless bunch
 * There's even been a murderer or two
 * A jerk, a clown, a pirate, and an educated man
 * Have listened and been taken in by you
 * Aw this dump is full of two-faced politicians
 * Who encourage you with words that go like this
 * "B***h and bicker if you like and fight for all to see."
 * That's a get acquainted a**holistic kiss
 * Now, ain't I right?

Verse 4

 * I know that there's a guy who likes to swear and whine all day
 * Well I would give that guy a heaven ban
 * He screams and swears, here's what I say
 * This just boils my blood, I'll talk to God because he is my man
 * Let's rid the world of this rotten wasteland
 * Who cannot wait to march out in our streets
 * Depleting this whole world of all freedoms, my friend
 * The Pie Man makes my aching spirit weak
 * Now, ain't I right?

Verse 5

 * So what I'm gonna do is ditch our leaders
 * It's time I found just where my soul can stand
 * Since I can't win this war with a**holism
 * I'm out of here and I don't give a damn!
 * One day we'll overthrow this haunted nation
 * And a**holistic boots will never trod
 * Across the fields of freedom that were given to us
 * With the blessing of our great almighty God
 * Across the fields of freedom that were given to us
 * With the blessing of our great almighty God
