"The thugs that work behind the bar like this thing"
"I remember that"
"Thank God"
ย
I'm gonna shine up my boots
I'm gonna go into town
I'm gonna scrape up twenty dollars
I'm gonna throw it around
I'm gonna buy me a dance
First lovely lady that I see
And when our dance is through
I'll say "Will you marry me?"
ย
I'm gonna shine up my boots
I'm gonna go into town
I'm gonna scrape up twenty dollars
I'm gonna throw it around
I'm gonna find me a game
Of hold 'em if I can
And fold 'em all night long
'Till I got me a hand
ย
I'm gonna buy us a ranch
With a palomino herd
And I won't mean no harm, babe
And I won't say a word
When Misery comes to call
I'll give to him my life
I'll set with him awhile
And share my horse, my home, my wife
ย
I'm gonna shine up my boots
I'm gonna go into town
I'm gonna scrape up twenty dollars
I'm gonna throw it around
I'm gonna buy me a dance
First lovely lady that I see
And when our dance is through
I'll say "Will you marry me?"
ย
I'm gonna shine up my boots
I'm gonna go into town
I'm gonna scrape up twenty dollars
But I'll probably just drink it down

"That's, Brother Speedy Siemens on the guitar and on that long stage right, Little Big Brad (???)"
ย
"And on this side of the stage, my old friend Kurt Ciesla on the bass, round of applause, please"
ย
"Just gonna, show off this shoe a little bit here"
"This is, this is a song all about the upright bass"
"Uh, anyone here play the upright, I know a few of you play the bass"
