lirik lagu the great american bum – cisco houston
come all you jolly jokers
if you want to have some fun,
and listen while i relate the tale
of the great american b-m.
from the east and west and north and south
like a swarm of bees they come,
they sleep in the dirt and they wear a shirt
that’s dirty and full of crumb.
chorus:
i am a b-m, a jolly old b-m
and i live like a royal turk
and i have good luck
and i b-m all my chuck
and to heck with the man that works
it’s early in the morning
when the dew is on the ground,
the b-m arises from his nest
and gazes all around,
well goin’ east, they’re loaded,
and goin’ west, sealed tight,
i reckon we’ll have to ride
aboard the fast express tonight.
chorus:
i beat my way from frisco
to the rockbound coast of maine
from canada to mexico
and then all the way back again.
well, i met a man the other day
that i never met before
and he asked me if i wanted a job
a-shoveling iron ore.
i asked what the wages was
and he said “ten cents a ton”
i said “oh fella, go scratch your… neck,
i’d rather be on the b-m.”
chorus:
oh lady would you be kind enough
to give me something to eat?
a piece of bread and b-tter,
and a tender slice of meat,
some apple pie and custard
just to tickle my appet-te.
for really i’m so hungry
don’t know where i’ll sleep tonight.
