Bigtime Blues Songtext
von Malcolm Holcombe

I′m a fatcat losin' in the lean ol′ times
Got my fatback slappin' outta my time
Ya make the phone keep ringin' in my ear fine
I′m a fatcat losin′ to the bigtime blues

Lazy eights a slippin' under that ratty ol′ rug
Sweepstakes driven outta town sucks
Gonna claim my ticket to the way that it was
Lazy eights a slippin' to the bigtime blues


See me on the left
See me on the right
See me cut down
Right down to size

I′m a fatcat losin' to the bigtime blues

I was a c.e.o. widda souped up seven
Taxman grinnin′ shinin' my shoes
Now I'm a s.o.b. at the backdoor whinin′
No dry clean money for the bigtime blues
