Brew the coffee in a bucket Double straight man and banjo If you don't got the snake oil Buster, you don't got a show Who puts the do re me in our pockets Keeps the party goin' on? It's the man who sells the potions I'm just the one who plays the songsNow they generally buys The bigger size They usually rub it in I drank it once, it tasted Like grease and paraffin It's mostly alcohol, okay You can't deny it's strong We was goin' through the motions 'Til the doctor came alongThere stands the bottle Ladies and gentlemen All these bottles Don't have to tell you, friends These days miracles Don't come fallin' from the sky Raise your glasses to the doctor To a stand up guyWhen the monkey shine is flyin' And he's promisin' the cure He says the French for your lovesick blues La maladie d'amour He gets the chumps all laughin' But he gets a few to buy Here's a beefsteak when you're hungry And whiskey when you're dryNow the band'll blow their moolah Like sailors gone ashore Now we're goin' to West Helena To gamble, drink and whore Let's you and me all make whoopee Here's mud in your eye Here's to all the gals he ever want And Heaven when you dieAnd there stands the bottle Ladies and gentlemen All these bottles Don't have to tell you, friends These days miracles Don't come fallin' from the sky Raise your glasses to the doctor To a stand up guyThere's a big cheese with a cigar Been sizin' up the show He wants to get the doctor Pitchin' on the radio I will make a switch to guitar But the rules all still apply They want to trust somebody Yeah, they want a stand up guyThere stands the bottle Here's to absent friends All these bottles Dead soldiers in the end These days miracles Don't come fallin' on from the sky Raise your glasses to the doctor To a stand up guyTo the doctor A stand up guy

Он использует гитару так, как будто она является его вторым «голосом».Наибольшую популярность приобрёл в качестве автора... продолжение
