Greatest Show On Earth

[Verse 1] I'm in the lobby of the motel 8 Waiting on my lovely date Her name is Doris Day I'm in a suit of burgundy There's a deer-head looking at me It's blowing my mind away Everyone knows she's the killing kind She keeps a 38 Smith and Wesson at her side I put a pistol in my pants Cause were going out to dance Where the water drinks like cherry wine [Verse 2] Tell me mama, so it seems Your son's been a bad marine They're shipping him home tonight Tell me mama wheres your other son In jail with the other one? You must'nt of raised them right I heard your low-life husband shout It got me to wondering what the scene was all about He said I'm breaking my parole Going down to Jericho Get me that money, or I'm gonna beat it out [Chorus] OOOH happy days are here! It's the perfect summer night And the moonlight's shining clear Put a pistol in your purse Cause we're going to Gettysburg To the stand of the Greatest Show on Earth! [Verse 3] Is that your daughter Mr. Kissinger? Better keep an eye on her She been looking me up and down Is that your woman in the coat of fur? Better keep an eye on her This is a ravenous part of town I know about you and the deputy And how they found him shot dead in a Mercury Some say you're paid to kill Like that mean ol' Buffalo Bill Watch it buddy! Don't draw no gun on me! [Chorus] OOOH happy days are here! It's the perfect summer night And the moonlight's shining clear Put a pistol in your purse Cause we're going to Gettysburg To the stand of the Greatest Show on Earth!
