The Empty Bottle was half empty, tide was low, and I was thirsty.
|
Saw her sitting at the bar, you know how some girls are,
|
Always making eyes, well she wasn't making eyes.
|
|
So I sidled up beside her, settled down and shouted, "Hi there."
|
"My name's Stewart Ransom Miller, I'm a serial lady-killer."
|
She said, "I'm already dead," that's exactly what she said.
|
|
So we tripped the lights fantastic, we was both made of elastic.
|
Midnight came and midnight went, and I thought I was the President.
|
She said, "Do you have a car," and I said, "Do I have a car?"

What's so great about the Barrier Reef?
|
What's so fine about art?
|
What's so good about a Good Times Van,
|
When you're working on a broken,
|
Working on a broken,
|
Working on a broken man?
|
|
When you're working on a broken,
|
Working on a broken,
|
Working on a broken man?
|
|
My heart wasn't in it, not for one single minute.
|
I went through the motions with her. Her on top, and me on liquor.
|
Didn't do no good, well I didn't think it would.
