Stand Up Guy - Mark Knopfler

Lyrics
words to study

Brew the coffee in a bucket

Double straight man and banjo

If you don't got the snake oil

Buster, you don't got a show

Who puts the doh-re-me

In our pockets

Keeps the party going on?

It's the man

Who sells the potions

I'm just one who plays the songs

Now they generally buys

The bigger size

They usually rub it in

I drank it once, it tasted

Like grease and paraffin

It's mostly alcohol, okay

You can't deny it's strong

We was going through the motions

'til the doctor came along

There stands the bottle

Ladies and gentlemen

All these bottles

Don't have to tell you, friends

These days miracles

Don't come falling from the sky

Raise your glasses to the doctor

To a stand up guy

When the monkeyshine is flying
