text: Well, Im a jitterbug boy by the shoeshine
  Resting on my laurels and my Hardys too
  Life of Riley on the swing shift, girls follow my drift
  Once upon a time I was in showbiz too
  I seen the Brooklyn Dodgers playin at Ebbets Field
  Seen the Kentucky Derby too
  Its fast women, slow horses, unreliable sources
  And Im holding up a lamppost, if you wanna know
  I seen the Wabash Cannonball, buddy, Ive done it all
  Because 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, I eaten Mulligan stew
  Got drunk with Louis Armstrong, whats that old song?
  I taught Mickey Mantle everything that he knows
  So youll ask me what Im doin here holdin up a lamppost
  Flippin this quarter, tryin to make up my mind
  If its heads, Ill go to Tennessee, tails, Ill buy a drink
  If it lands on the edge, Ill keep talkin to you
