| Once I was down in the promised land
|
| In a borrowed tent with a caravan
|
| The leader of the pack stuck out his hand
|
| He said, «Pleased to meet you
|
| I’m the Kerosene Man»
|
| And I jump and run and steal the show
|
| Where it’s heading I don’t know
|
| When these things get out of hand
|
| Look out baby, it’s the Kerosene Man
|
| Three day bender with Ray Milland
|
| Scotch and soda and candied yams
|
| Things they were getting out of hand
|
| Ray was dancing with the Kerosene Man
|
| And I jump and run and steal the show
|
| Where it’s heading I don’t know
|
| When these things get out of hand
|
| Look out baby, it’s the Kerosene Man
|
| Me and Mickey Mantle and Stan the Man
|
| Were talking about a kid we couldn’t understan
|
| He batted .360 in Birmingham
|
| Got fooled by a curveball by the Kerosene Man
|
| And I jump and run and steal the show
|
| Wher it’s heading I don’t know
|
| When these things get out of hand
|
| Look out baby, it’s the Kerosene Man
|
| Chinese food in Alabama
|
| I was looking at the menu, according to plan
|
| Ate too much moo goo gai pan
|
| Had one more dream about hte Kerosene Man
|
| And I run and jump and steal the show
|
| Where it’s heading I don’t know
|
| When these things get out of hand
|
| Look out baby, it’s the Kerosene Man |
