1. There lived a certain man in Russia long ago,
Dm E Am
he was big and strong, in his eyes a flaming glow,
\
Most people looked at him with terror and with fear,
Dm E Am
but to Moscow chicks he was such a lovely dear.
Dm E
He could preach the Bible like a preacher, full of ecstasy and fire.
Am Dm E Am
But he also was the kind of teacher, women would desire.
Am C D A
Ra-Ra-Rasputin, lover of the Russian queen,
G D A
there was a cat that really was done.
C D A
Ra-Ra-Rasputin, Russia's greatest love machine,
G D A - E
it was a shame how he carried on.

2. He ruled the Russian land and never mind the Czar,
Dm E Am
but the kasachok he danced really wunderbar.
\ \ \
In all affairs of state, he was the man to please,
Dm E Am
but he was real great when he had a girl to squeeze.
\
For the queen he was no wheeler dealer,
Dm E
though she'd heard the things he'd done.
Am Dm E Am
She believed he was a holy healer, who would heal her son.
+ CHORUS
(Spoken:)
Am G F
But when his drinking and lusting and his hunger for power
Am \
became known to more and more people,
G F
the demands to do something about this outrageous
Am
man became louder and louder.
Am
3. "This man's just got to go!" declared his enemies,
Dm E Am
but the ladies begged "Don't you try to do it, please".
\
No doubt this Rasputin had lots of hidden charms,
Dm E Am
though he was a brute, they just fell into his arms.
Then one night some men of higher standing,
Dm E
set a trap, they're not to blame,
Am Dm E Am
"Come to visit us" they kept demanding, and he really came.
C D A
Ra-Ra-Rasputin, lover of the Russian queen,
G D A
they put some poison into his wine.
C D A
Ra-Ra-Rasputin, Russia's greatest love machine,
G D A
He drank it all and he said "I feel fine".
G D A ...and so they shot him till he was dead.
