Lyrics for Tiny Montgomery

Well you can tell ev'rybody Down in ol' Frisco Tell 'em Tiny Montgomery says hello Now ev'ry boy and girl's Gonna get their bang 'Cause Tiny Montgomery's Gonna shake that thing Tell ev'rybody Down in ol' Frisco That Tiny Montgomery's comin' Down to say hello Skinny Moo and Half-track Frank They're gonna both be gettin' Outa the tank One bird book And a buzzard and a crow Tell 'em all That Tiny's gonna say hello Scratch your dad Do that bird Suck that pig And bring it on home Pick that drip And bake that dough Tell 'em all That Tiny says hello Now he's king of the drunks An' he squeezes, too Watch out, Lester Take it, Lou Join the monks The C.I.O. Tell 'em all That Tiny Montgomery says hello Now grease that pig And sing praise Go on out And gas that dog Trick on in Honk that stink Take it on down And watch it grow Play it low And pick it up Take it on in In a plucking cup Three-legged man And a hot-lipped hoe Tell 'em all Montgomery says hello Well you can tell ev'rybody Down in ol' Frisco Tell 'em all Montgomery says hello
