Hey, look me over
Lend me an ear
Mortgaged up to here
But don't pass the plate, folks,
Don't pass the cup;
I figure whenever you're down and out,
The only way is up
And I'll up like a rose bud
High on the vine
Don't thumb your nose, bud,
take a tip from mine.
I'm a little bit short of the elbow room,
But let me get me some
And look out, world, here I come.
Hey, look me over
Lend me an ear
Mortgaged up to here
But don't pass the plate, folks,
Don't pass the cup;
I figure whenever you're down and out,
The only way is up
And I'll up like a rose bud
High on the vine
Don't thumb your nose, bud,
take a tip from mine.
I'm a little bit short of the elbow room,
But let me get me some
And look out, world, here I come.
