From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Tie My Pecker To My Leg" is a song by Mojo Nixon. It is a very crude song that Mojo Nixon plays at almost every live performance.[1] According to an Artist Direct review of Whereabouts Unknown, "Tie My Pecker to my Leg" was Mojo Nixon's bawdiest song up to that point is his career.[2] Besides mentioning bestiality and sitophilia, "Tie My Pecker to My Leg" also mentions geriatric sex and coprophilia.

[edit] Origins of refrain

"The Old Gism Trail" or "The Old Jizzum Trail" is one of the oldest songs with a cowboy theme. In all versions of the song, the refrain was:

Come-a ti yi yupi, yupi ya, yupi ya
Come-a ti yi yupi, yupi ya

Non-cowboys remember a version with these words:

Come-a tie my root around a tree, 'round a tree
Come-a tie my root around a tree

Ed Cray in "The Erotic Muse" credits these lyrics to high school and college students in southern California

Gonna tie my pecker to my leg, to my leg
Gonna tie my pecker to my leg

These are the lyrics in the Mojo Nixon song.[3][4]

[edit] Other versions

There is also Vietnam era version sung to "exert some control over the penis" of "Tie My Pecker to my Leg."[5]
