Manhattan Transfer - You'se A Viper текст песни

By Thomas "Fats" Waller

(Instrumental Intro)


Talk about a reefer of five feet long
Not too fat and not too strong
You get high, but not for long
If you'se a viper

Now I'm the king of everything
Got to get high for to sing
Light that tee and we will see
If you'se a viper

When coke gets dry you know you're high
Everything is hip and dandy
Truck on down to the candy store
Bust your chops on some peppermint candy

Now you know that you been sent
Don't give a damn if you can't pay the rent
The sky is high and so am I
If you'se a viper

(Instrumental)

When coke gets dry you know you're high
Everything is hip and dandy
Truck on down to the candy store
Bust your chops on some peppermint candy
v Now you know everything
Got to get high for to sing
Light that tee and we will see
If you'se a viper
