Singapore Sling
Ding ding ding ding-a-ding

“Woof” said the dog as I sat in the barn yeah
Tick-tock goes the clock as I walk by the wall yeah
The drop of a “bing” could be heard, not a word yeah
I thought to myself what the heck am I doing here

“Ding-ding” bartender bring me a Singapore sling
“Sure thing”, said the girl as she handed me the stiff drink
Wink wink, with the eyes as they got to my pink dress
“Twang-twang”, said the guitar man seated on the back

“Hoh hoh hoh”, he laughed like a frenchman
And he invited me to sit down right beside him
“Can you sing sing can you song song”
“Can you sing a song”
“Yeah”
Oh yes sir I can do it all night long

So chop chop chop we begin the begin
Not just the top but all the way to the ending
Choo-choo just the way Glenn played it back then
I go, I go, really brought the house down

Shake it up, make it fast, got just one night let’s make it last
Now now now, forget the past, we can always find love in an empty glass
I’m tired of overthinking, let’s try to stink of drinking
Where everything is dig-dig-diggly-dee

Shake it up, make it fast, got just one night let’s make it last
Now now now, forget the past, we can always find love in an empty glass
I’m tired of overthinking, let’s try to stink of drinking
Where everything is dig-dig-diggly-dee

Just when the gin was beginning to kick in
Me and old Charlie, man, got a second win
Perhaps it was a shot full of Lincolns and Jacksons
The bouncer was bouncing arond with a couple of twins

Seems the whole city has squeezed into the saloon
It got so hot like an Arizona hot noon
Charlie’s so sweaty, he could barely play the whole tune
His head got red and bobbly like a balloon

The sheriff came in, made an entrance so grand
Smack king has come like he’s figured out the whole plan
Shot me a look that was kind of a greasy glance
Slipped into an attempt out of quick romance

He pulled up a chair and pulled on the hair of his chin
Probably gonna ring a punishment for my sin
But I wasn’t about to even let him tickle my gran
I grabbed my bills, ran, (?) on the between

Shake it up, make it fast, got just one night let’s make it last
Now now now, forget the past, we can always find love in an empty glass
I’m tired of overthinking, let’s try to stink of drinking
Where everything is dig-dig-diggly-dee

Shake it up, make it fast, got just one night let’s make it last
Now now now, forget the past, we can always find love in an empty glass
I’m tired of overthinking, let’s try to stink of drinking
Where everything is dig-dig-diggly-dee

When they realized what had just happened
I was already halfway to South Bend
On the route to my next town to offend
I taste what gin made “pore” in a Singa"pore" Sling
