Tiger & The Monkey - Jim Lauderdale[00:00:00]
Tiger and a monkey went to war[00:00:09]
The monkey rode in on a labrador[00:00:12]
The tiger came on roller skates[00:00:16]
Skids and fancy figure eights[00:00:18]
Juggling a dozen plates or more[00:00:20]
Strutting cocky to the n'th degree[00:00:24]
Monkey brought his field artillery[00:00:28]
Look at what the tiger brought[00:00:32]
Some ante-bellum cannon shot[00:00:33]
Engraved with Louisiana filigree[00:00:35]
Round and round and round again we go[00:00:39]
Round and round and round again you know[00:00:43]
You're sweet as a buttercup[00:00:47]
With the gold side up[00:00:49]
Don't ever think of leaving till you go[00:00:50]
Blackbird sitting on a daisy chain[00:00:55]
Says maybe you should come out of the rain[00:00:58]
Why don't you just postpone your war[00:01:02]
Clothe your hungry feed your poor[00:01:04]
Before you take your sword up once again[00:01:06]
Round and round and round again we go[00:01:25]
Round and round and round again you know[00:01:28]
You're sweet as a buttercup[00:01:32]
With the gold side up[00:01:34]
Don't ever think of leaving till you go[00:01:36]
Well now I've told you everything I know[00:01:40]
But that never shut me up before[00:01:44]
Been dealing down the line[00:01:47]
Crooked decks and loaded dice[00:01:49]
How far do you think your luck may go[00:01:51]
Come and kiss me quick oh Molly Dee[00:01:55]
One for you another one for me[00:01:59]
We'll make love upon the fence[00:02:02]
Barring fatal accidents[00:02:04]
Show how one and one can still make three[00:02:06]
You're sweet as a buttercup[00:02:10]
With the gold side up[00:02:12]
Don't ever think of leaving till you go[00:02:14]
