| You didn’t see me climb through the window
|
| Nobody had to open that door
|
| I just climb right through the wall and I want you one and all
|
| To stand aside and let me have the floor
|
| Take a look, I’m not such a stranger
|
| Here’s a face you cokies all ought to know
|
| You can tell me I’m not wanted, but the joint will still be haunted
|
| 'Cause I’m the ghost of Smokey Joe
|
| Remember when I kicked the bucket
|
| In my mansion up on Strivers' Row
|
| When they came and took me off in
|
| A zillion dollar coffin
|
| 'Cause I’m the ghost of Smokey Joe
|
| Tell me, do you remember Minnie? |
| (Yeah, we remember Minnie)
|
| That frail I never found
|
| You never recognize your Minnie (You never recognize your Minnie)
|
| You mean to say that Minnie
|
| Quit kickin' the gong around?
|
| I got a date on my estate down in Hades
|
| Call my chariot so I can go
|
| And should the moocher walk in
|
| Just tell her you’ve been talkin'
|
| To the ghost of Smokey Joe
|
| Yes, I remember Minnie
|
| She’s that frail I never found
|
| You mean to say that Minnie
|
| Quit kickin' the gong around?
|
| I got a date on my estate down in Hades
|
| Call my chariot so I can go
|
| And should the moocher walk in
|
| Just tell her you’ve been talkin'
|
| To the ghost of Smokey Joe |
