Oh, down
stairs at Dan ny’s All Star Joint, they got a juke box that goes “doyt, doyt.”
The vice is nice; they stay in the back all day.
But when the night (CN.C.)time comes,
hey, hey.
There’s this (A)cat down there that makes this bad kind a soup.
I come a (E)round, strut tin’ my luck in my shoop coupe.
Ce cil (B7)gives me cof fee and he won’t nev er take my coin.
I say, “I got (A)thir (CN.C.)ty dol lars in my pock et!
What choo do’n’?” I hol ler, (E7)“Come on, Ce cil, take a dol lar!
Come on, Ce cil, take a ten!
Well, I’ve fi n’lly geared up in to a whole bunch a big ones, and you’re act in’ like I’m down shift in’.”
