Song title:
Tom Waits - Jitterbug Boy
Edit By:
216.73.216.251
Well, Im a jitterbug boy, by the shoe-shine Resting on my laurels and my hardys too Life of riley on a swing shift, gears follow my drift Once upon a time I was in show-biz too I seen the brooklyn dodgers playing at ebbets field Seen the kentucky derby too Its fast women, slow horses, unreliable sources, And Im holding up the lamp-post if you want to know Ive seen the wabash cannonball, buddy, Ive done it all cause I slept with the lions and marilyn monroe, Had breakfast in the eye of a hurricane Fought rocky marciano, played minnesota fats, Burned hundred-dollar bills, Ive eaten mulligan stew Got drunk with louis armstrong, whats that old song? I taught mickey mantle everything that he knows So you ask me what Im doing here holding up the lamp-post, Flipping this quarter, trying to make up my mind And if its heads I go to tennessee, and tails I buy a drink, If it lands on the edge I keep talking to you (scat)
