Hey, look me over, lend me an ear
Fresh out of clover, mortgage up to here
But don't pass the plate, folks, don't pass the cup
When you're down and out the only way is up
And I'll be up like a rosebud, high on the vine
Don't thumb your nose but take a tip from mine
I'm a little bit short of the elbow room so let me get me some
And look out world, here I come
Everybody better spread out
When I head out I'll need lots of space
Nothing more will ever throw me
'Cause you know me by my laughing face
From trouble I'm gonna stay aloof
And just in case you need more proof
Hey, look me over, lend me an ear
Fresh out of clover, mortgage up to here
But don't pass the plate, folks, don't pass the cup
When you're down and out the only way is up
And I'll be up like a rosebud high on the vine
Don't thumb your nose but take a tip from mine
I'm a little bit short of the elbow room so let me get me some
And look out world, here I come
And I'll be up like a rosebud high on the vine
Don't thumb your nose but take a tip from mine
I'm a little bit short on the elbow room so let me get me some
And look out world, here I come, look out world, here I come
