Stand Up Guy

Brew the coffee in a bucket[00:00:06]

Double straight man and banjo[00:00:10]

If you don't got the snake oil[00:00:13]

Buster you don't got a show[00:00:16]

Who puts the doh-re-me[00:00:19]

In our pockets[00:00:21]

Keeps the party going on [00:00:22]

It's the man[00:00:25]

Who sells the potions[00:00:27]

I'm just one who plays the songs[00:00:29]

Now they generally buys[00:00:32]

The bigger size[00:00:35]

They usually rub it in[00:00:37]

I drank it once it tasted[00:00:40]

Like grease and paraffin[00:00:43]

It's mostly alcohol okay[00:00:46]

You can't deny it's strong[00:00:50]

We was going through the motions[00:00:53]

'Til the doctor came along[00:00:56]

There stands the bottle[00:01:01]

Ladies and gentlemen[00:01:05]

All these bottles[00:01:09]

Don't have to tell you friends[00:01:12]

These days miracles[00:01:15]

Don't come falling from the sky[00:01:18]

Raise your glasses to the doctor[00:01:21]

To a stand up guy[00:01:25]

When the monkeyshine is flying[00:01:36]

And he's promising the cure[00:01:39]

He says the french[00:01:43]

For your lovesick blues[00:01:44]

La maladie d'amour[00:01:47]

He gets the chumps all laughing[00:01:50]

But he gets a few to buy[00:01:54]

Here's to beefsteak[00:01:56]

When you're hungry[00:01:58]

And whiskey when you're dry[00:02:00]

Now the band'll blow their moolah[00:02:03]

Like sailors gone ashore[00:02:07]

Now we're going to west helena[00:02:10]

To gamble drink and whore[00:02:14]

Let's you and me[00:02:17]

All make whoopee[00:02:19]

Here's mud in your eye[00:02:21]

Here's to all the gals you ever want[00:02:24]

And heaven when you die[00:02:27]

There stands the bottle[00:02:31]

Ladies and gentlemen[00:02:35]

All these bottles[00:02:40]

Don't have to tell you friends[00:02:43]

These days miracles[00:02:46]

Don't come falling from the sky[00:02:49]

Raise your glasses to the doctor[00:02:52]

To a stand up guy[00:02:56]

There's a big cheese with a cigar[00:03:07]

Been sizing up the show[00:03:10]

He wants to get the doctor[00:03:14]

Pitching on the radio[00:03:17]

I will make a switch to guitar[00:03:20]

But the rules all still apply[00:03:24]

They want to trust somebody[00:03:27]

Yeah they want a stand up guy[00:03:30]

There stands the bottle[00:03:35]

Here's to absent friends[00:03:39]

All these bottles[00:03:43]

Dead soldiers in the end[00:03:46]

These days miracles[00:03:49]

Don't come falling from the sky[00:03:53]

Raise your glasses to the doctor[00:03:56]

To a stand up guy[00:04:00]

To the doctor[00:04:06]

A stand up guy[00:04:07]
