Syncopatin' Sandy |
When I was just a kid way back in my hometown |
There was a crazy little man who once came around |
Syncopatin' Sandy was the stranger’s name |
Playing marathon piano, that was Sandy’s game |
He played all day, he played all night |
After 48 hours he was still alright |
We fed him whiskey from a paper cup |
And we wondered how long he could keep it up |
How long? |
how long? |
How long? |
how long? |
Well his eyes are rollin' and he can’t even speak |
The spirit’s willing but the flesh is weak |
How long? |
how long? |
How long? |
how long? |
People would come and the people would go |
And the people all agreed it wasn’t much of a show |
They all Sandy must be weak in the head |
And if he didn’t stop soon he would drop down dead |
He played all day, he played all night |
After 96 hours he was still alright |
We fed him whiskey from a paper cup |
And we wondered how long he could keep it up |
How long? |
how long? |
How long? |
how long? |
Well his eyes are rollin' and he can’t even speak |
The spirit’s willing but the flesh is weak |
How long? |
how long? |
How long? |
how long? |
How long? |
how long? |
