but he was too much a gentleman
Thought life was for always,
Some people call him hot dog,
and some call him automatic
Some people didn't like him,
said he was a human zer o
No matter about no names,
he's the leader of the fat boys
And when you get in trouble,
and you got no one to turn to
and they will pull you through
You're fallin' to the river
and you're driftin' in the current
They're comin' round to play
And we don't wanna hear it
And we'll still be playing until midnight
And we'll still be playing
in the dawn's early light
And if you don't believe us,
why don't you come and see us
But old Slim got in the middle
But it was too much a gentleman
Thought life was for always
