AThis is it folks, over the top He was selling post cards from a paper stand A whiskey bottle in his withered hand He put his finger on a photo from an old magazine Saw himself in the shadow of a dream Running with his head inside a juke-box crown Told him his feet stank and took him downtown Called him agitator, spy and thief Shut him up solitary third degree
Chorus:
ATake A Dlong Eline ETake a Dlong Eline x 2 E/D E/C#With Ahim
He tried to appeal to the king of might He said I'm just exercisin' my sacred right The king he said you ain't got no rights You're a mad, bad traitor get outta my sight Chorus Bass rises rather than decending at end:
E/F# E/AbWith Ahim Break: Cx2 G F# A Ab Cx2 D C# A Ab
Running with his head inside a juke-box crown Told him his feet stank and took him downtown Called him agitator, spy and thief Shut him up solitary third degree Well they put him up boy, a world-wide whirlwind Pulled out his teeth and they told him to grin He gave them a smile, pulled out a bottle of wine He said I never existed you been wasting your time Chorus x 2
ATake A Dlong Eline ETake A Dlong Eline ETake a Dlong, long, long Eline With Ahim
