The Felice Brothers - Greatest Show On Earth Lyrics
I'm in the lobby of the motel lateWaitin on my lovely dateHer name is Doris DayI'm in a suit of burgundyThere's a deerhead lookin at meIt's blowin my mind awayEveryone knows she's the killin kindShe keeps a 38 smith and wesson at her sideI put a pistol in my pantsCause were going out to danceWhere the water drinks like cherry wineTell me mama, so it seemsYour son's been a bad marineThey're shippin him home tonightTell me mama was your other sonIn jail with the other one?You must've raised em wrongI heard your low-life husband shoutIt got me to wondering what the scene was all aboutHe said I'm breakin my paroleGoin down to JerichoGet me that money, or I'm gonna beat it outOOO happy days are here!It's the perfect summer nightAnd the moonlight's shining clearPut a pistol in your purseCause we're goin to GhettysburghTo the stand of the Greatest Show on Earth!Is that your daughter Mr. Kissinger?Better keep an eye on herShe been lookin me up and downIs that your woman in the coat of fur?Better keep an eye on herThis is a ravenous part of townI know about you and the deputyAnd how they found him shot dead in a MercurySome say you're paid to killLike that mean ole Buffalo BillWatch it buddy! Don't draw no gun on me!OOO happy days are here!It's the perfect summer nightAnd the moonlight's shining clearPut a pistol in your purseCause we're goin to GhettysburghTo the stand of the Greatest Show on Earth!
