Henry Mancini
Intro
He Asleeps out Bthere, out Dwhere the coyotes Bwail,
The Dreason he Aain't at the Ebar with the Bboys,
BMakes Equite Ba DdisAmal C#tale ...
Chorus 1
He Ashouldn't-a, Chadn't-a, Doughtn't-a Eswang on Ame,
He Aoughtn't-a, Cshouldn't-a, Dhadn't-a, Eno sirBee.
You Cdon't get many Dcallers,
Sleeping Eon the lone praiBrie.
But he Ashouldn't-a, Chadn't-a, Doughtn't-a Eswang on Ame.
Verse 1
AWay out West we're wild and wooly,
AIn order to explain it fully:
We're Ctall Dgrown, Call Dgrown,
AAll the men are hairy-chested,
AAnd all the women, double-breasted.
AWe're lady-like until molested,
And Bthen we're Don our Eown!
Chorus 2
He Ashouldn't-a, Chadn't-a, Doughtn't-a Eswang on Ame,
He Aoughtn't-a Cshouldn't-a Dhadn't-a Efelt so Bfree.
His Cwife gets the inDsurance,
And I'm Esorry as can Bbe,
But he Ashouldn't-a, Chadn't-a, Doughtn't-a Eswang on Ame.
Verse 2
AThis here job is mighty tryin',
ASometimes the room is fairly flyin' with
CHigh-Dballs, Ceye-Dballs.
AOne got killed, somebody got 'im,
ATore up the joint from top to bottom.
AI think I was that one that shot him,
As Bnear as DI reEcall.
Chorus 3
He Ashouldn't-a, Chadn't-a, Doughtn't-a Eswang on Ame,
He Bmassacred Aeight or nine Bmen at the ELazy "BB".
He Athen took on the Csheriff, and the Dsheriff's Adeputy,
But he Ashouldn't-a, Chadn't-a, Doughtn't-a Eswang on Bme.
Verse 3
AAll you boys remember Harry,
AThe wrangler I was set to marry,
A Clong Dman, Cstrong Dman.
AOne night he yells, "I'm from Texas!"
AAnd socks me in my solar plexus.
AWell having normal, good reflexes,
I Bknocked him Don his Ecan!
Chorus 4
He Bshouldn't-a, Dhadn't-a, Eoughtn't-a F#blacked my Beye,
I'm Ereally a Blovable, Dpeaceable Fkind of Cguy.
I Cwouldn't scare a Drabbit, and I Ecouldn't harm a Bflea,
But he Bshouldn't-a, Dhadn't-a, Eoughtn't-a F#swang on mBe.

Verse 4
AIf this story has a moral,
AIt's: When you're looking for a quarrel or
CShow DDown. "CSlow Ddown."
AIf by now, you haven't mastered,
AThe gentle art of getting plastered,
AYou're just a Low-Down, you ain't mastered,
The Bmotto Dof our Etown!
Chorus 5 ending
You Bshouldn't-a, Dhadn't-a, Eoughtn't-a F#start no Bfight,
Our Dburying ground is a most imFpressive Csight.
The Cmessage on them Dtombstones is as Esimple as can Bbe,
He Dshouldn't-a, Ehadn't-a, Boughtn't-a Eswang C#on F#me,
He Eshouldn't-a, F#hadn't-a, C#oughtn't-a F#swang Don Ame!
