slim gaillard - in a shanty in old shanty town كلمات أغنية

it’s only a shanty, in old shanty town
(shanty town)
roof so slanty, it touches the ground
(touches the ground)
tumbledown shack, by an old railroad track
([scatting])
like a millionaire’s mansion, it’s callin’ me back
(it’s callin’ you back)
give up palace, if i were a king
(look out, jack)
more than a palace, it’s my everything
(you say it is)
queen waitin’ there, in a silvery crown
([scatting])
in a shanty, in old shanty town

[bass solo]

there’s a shanty in town, on a little plot of ground
with the green grass growin’ all ’round, all ’round
the roof’s so worn, so badly torn
’til it tumbles to the ground
just a tumbledown shack and it’s built way back
about 25 feet from the railroad track
lingers on my mind, most all the time
keeps callin’ me back to my little old shack
i’d be just as sassy as haile selassie
if i were king, wouldn’t mean a thing
put my boots on tall, read the writin’ on thе wall
and it wouldn’t mean a thing, not a doggone thing
therе’s a queen waitin’ there, in a rockin’ chair
just blowin’ a top on some cajun beer
lookin’ all ’round, and i’m truckin’ on down
’cause i’m glad to get back to my shanty town
[instrumental]

there’s a queen waitin’ there, with a silvery crown
oh, i’m a jive cat, i’m a hip cat
i’ve got my boots on tall, read the writin’ on the wall
’cause i’m glad to get back to my shanty town

- slim gaillard
