Table Top Joe |
| Well, my Mama didn’t want me |
| On the day I was born |
| Born without a body |
| I got nothin' but scorn |
| But I always loved music |
| All I had was my hands |
| And I dreamed I’d be famous |
| And I’d work at The Sands |
| Tabletop Joe Tabletop Joe |
| Everyone knows Tabletop Joe |
| I had trouble with the pedals |
| But I had a strong left hand |
| And I could play Stravinsky |
| On a baby grand |
| I said I’m gonna join the circus |
| 'cause that’s where I belong |
| And I went to Coney Island |
| Singing this song |
| Tabletop Joe Tabletop Joe |
| Everyone knows Tabletop Joe |
| And they gave me top billing |
| In the Dreamland show |
| I had my own orchestra |
| Starring Tabletop Joe |
| And the man without a body |
| Proved everyone wrong |
| I was rich and I was famous |
| And I was where I belonged |
| Singing Tabletop Joe |
| Tabletop Joe |
| Everyone knows Tabletop Joe |
