When Jack Frost came for Christmas[00:00:12]

With a brass monkey date[00:00:16]

The rail-king and the scarecrow[00:00:19]

Hopped a Florida freight[00:00:21]

And they blew on their paper cups[00:00:24]

And stared through the steam[00:00:28]

Then they drank half a bottle[00:00:30]

Of Ragpicker＇s Dream where[00:00:34]

The whiskey keeps following[00:00:37]

Cold pitchers of beer[00:00:39]

Me and my associate[00:00:43]

Like the clientele here get[00:00:45]

The onions and the ＇taters[00:00:48]

Rib-eyes on the grill[00:00:52]

Toothpicks and luckies[00:00:55]

And a coffee refill as[00:00:57]

The rail-king lay rocking[00:01:12]

He was leaving the ground[00:01:16]

Then he was flying like Santa Claus[00:01:18]

Over the town where[00:01:22]

He came to the window[00:01:24]

Of a house by a stream[00:01:27]

It was a family Christmas[00:01:31]

In the Ragpicker＇s Dream there[00:01:33]

Were kids at the table[00:01:38]

All aglow in the light[00:01:42]

Music in the wintertime[00:01:45]

Sure carries at night there[00:01:47]

Was turkey and gravy[00:01:50]

Pie and ice cream[00:01:54]

And gifts for each and everyone[00:01:58]

In the Ragpicker＇s Dream where[00:02:00]

The red-eye keeps tumbling[00:02:03]

In our glasses of beer[00:02:06]

Me and my associate[00:02:10]

Like the service in here there＇s[00:02:12]

A ten for your trouble[00:02:16]

You have beautiful hair[00:02:19]

Make the last one two doubles[00:02:22]

It＇s a cold one out there where[00:02:24]

The scarecrow and the rail-king[00:02:29]

Have started to dance[00:02:33]

But a nightstick and a billyclub[00:02:35]

Won＇t give peace a chance here[00:02:38]

I think they went thataways[00:02:41]

Your song and dance team[00:02:45]

Heading home for the holidays[00:02:48]

With the Ragpicker＇s Dream on[00:02:52]

His knees like a fighter[00:02:56]

The rail-riding king[00:03:00]

Like a sack of potatoes[00:03:03]

Like a bull in the ring where[00:03:05]

The scarecrow falls over[00:03:08]

With a tear in the seam[00:03:12]

Home for the rover[00:03:19]

In the Ragpicker＇s Dream where[00:03:22]

The red-eye keeps tumbling[00:03:25]

Like tears in our beer[00:03:28]

Me and my associate[00:03:31]

Like the ambience here where[00:03:33]

They cornered two castaways[00:03:37]

In a white flashlight beam[00:03:40]

Merry Christmas and happy days[00:03:47]

In the Ragpicker＇s Dream[00:03:50]
