Rack Up The Balls Boys - Rex Allen[00:00:00]
Rack up the balls boys[00:00:05]
Put away the cues[00:00:06]
Old father time is on the trail[00:00:08]
And he ain't gonna lose[00:00:10]
When he deals your number[00:00:12]
He's gonna call your name[00:00:13]
It ain't no joke[00:00:15]
That's all she wrote[00:00:16]
This may be your last game [00:00:17]
It was down in Higgins poolroom[00:00:19]
On the corner of the square [00:00:21]
A flea-bitten crowd had gathered[00:00:23]
And sweet music filled the air [00:00:24]
Old honest john was taking bets[00:00:27]
When dice bounced off the wall [00:00:28]
From a heart attack [00:00:30]
He staggered back [00:00:31]
He covered his last call [00:00:32]
So rack up the balls boys [00:00:34]
Put away the cues [00:00:37]
Old father time is on the trail[00:00:38]
And he ain't gonna lose [00:00:40]
Old honest john was taking bets[00:00:42]
When dice bounced off the wall [00:00:44]
From a heart attack [00:00:46]
He staggered back [00:00:46]
He covered his last call [00:00:47]
A big rough man was Willie jones [00:01:04]
The bully of our town [00:01:06]
But in a fight he lost one night[00:01:07]
And he was smitten down [00:01:09]
The guy that threw the cue ball[00:01:11]
Was no bigger than a flea [00:01:13]
Yet Willie held a lily[00:01:15]
That he couldn't smell nor see [00:01:17]
So rack up the balls boys [00:01:19]
Put away the cues [00:01:21]
Old father time is on the trail[00:01:23]
And he ain't gonna lose [00:01:25]
The guy that threw the cue ball[00:01:26]
Was no bigger than a flea [00:01:28]
Yet Willie held a lily[00:01:30]
That he couldn't smell nor see [00:01:32]
In every town [00:01:34]
There is some bird[00:01:35]
Who's heavy on the boast [00:01:36]
I've news for you [00:01:38]
I know a man who's walking awfully close [00:01:39]
He's got a scythe in his right hand[00:01:41]
And wears a long grey beard [00:01:43]
Smart alec guy [00:01:45]
I bet you'll cry[00:01:46]
When he pins back your ears [00:01:47]
So rack up the balls boys [00:01:49]
Put away the cues [00:01:51]
Old father time is on your trail[00:01:53]
And he ain't gonna lose [00:01:55]
He's got a scythe in his right hand[00:01:57]
And wears a long grey beard [00:01:58]
Smart alec guy [00:02:00]
I bet you'll cry when he pins back your ears [00:02:01]
Some like to come in loaded[00:02:19]
And give their wife a scare [00:02:21]
She'll probably marry another shortly[00:02:23]
After you ain't here [00:02:24]
So if you wanna stick around [00:02:26]
Don't have another drink [00:02:28]
But go home now [00:02:30]
It's getting late [00:02:31]
It's later than you think [00:02:32]
So rack up the balls boys [00:02:33]
Put away the cues [00:02:36]
Old father time is on the trail[00:02:37]
And he ain't gonna lose [00:02:39]
So if you wanna stick around[00:02:41]
Don't have another drink[00:02:43]
But go home now [00:02:45]
It's getting late [00:02:47]
It's later than you think[00:02:49]
