When Jack Frost came for Christmas |
| [00:16.16] |
With a brass monkey date |
| [00:19.22] |
The rail-king and the scarecrow |
| [00:21.76] |
Hopped a Florida freight |
| [00:24.68] |
And they blew on their paper cups |
| [00:28.52] |
And stared through the steam |
| [00:30.71] |
Then they drank half a bottle |
| [00:34.09] |
Of Ragpicker's Dream where |
| [00:37.08] |
The whiskey keeps following |
| [00:39.83] |
Cold pitchers of beer |
| [00:43.76] |
Me and my associate |
| [00:45.70] |
Like the clientele here get |
| [00:48.74] |
The onions and the 'taters |
| [00:52.89] |
Rib-eyes on the grill |
| [00:55.71] |
Toothpicks and luckies |
| [00:57.64] |
And a coffee refill as |
| [01:12.72] |
The rail-king lay rocking |
| [01:16.94] |
He was leaving the ground |
| [01:18.74] |
Then he was flying like Santa Claus |
| [01:22.60] |
Over the town where |
| [01:24.79] |
He came to the window |
| [01:27.91] |
Of a house by a stream |
| [01:31.16] |
It was a family Christmas |
| [01:33.97] |
In the Ragpicker's Dream there |
| [01:38.40] |
Were kids at the table |
| [01:42.59] |
All aglow in the light |
| [01:45.34] |
Music in the wintertime |
| [01:47.53] |
Sure carries at night there |
| [01:50.72] |
Was turkey and gravy |
| [01:54.40] |
Pie and ice cream |
| [01:58.09] |
And gifts for each and everyone |
| [02:00.91] |
In the Ragpicker's Dream where |
| [02:03.97] |
The red-eye keeps tumbling |
| [02:06.90] |
In our glasses of beer |
| [02:10.79] |
Me and my associate |
| [02:12.84] |
Like the service in here there's |
| [02:16.57] |
A ten for your trouble |
| [02:19.01] |
You have beautiful hair |
| [02:22.14] |
Make the last one two doubles |
| [02:24.82] |
It's a cold one out there where |
| [02:29.62] |
The scarecrow and the rail-king |
| [02:33.05] |
Have started to dance |
| [02:35.54] |
But a nightstick and a billyclub |
| [02:38.41] |
Won't give peace a chance here |
| [02:41.35] |
I think they went thataways |
| [02:45.16] |
Your song and dance team |
| [02:48.03] |
Heading home for the holidays |
| [02:52.54] |
With the Ragpicker's Dream on |
| [02:56.53] |
His knees like a fighter |
| [03:00.28] |
The rail-riding king |
| [03:03.16] |
Like a sack of potatoes |
| [03:05.34] |
Like a bull in the ring where |
| [03:08.61] |
The scarecrow falls over |
| [03:12.17] |
With a tear in the seam |
| [03:19.29] |
Home for the rover |
| [03:22.10] |
In the Ragpicker's Dream where |
| [03:25.22] |
The red-eye keeps tumbling |
| [03:28.14] |
Like tears in our beer |
| [03:31.91] |
Me and my associate |
| [03:33.89] |
Like the ambience here where |
| [03:37.06] |
They cornered two castaways |
| [03:40.75] |
In a white flashlight beam |
| [03:47.38] |
Merry Christmas and happy days |
| [03:50.69] |
In the Ragpicker's Dream |
