and Tuffy played the drum
And Stinky Fasta had a round
We had a real back alley symphony
With a crazy corny mixed up sound
We slowed a lot of traffic down
and Tuffy played the drum
And Stinky passed the hat around
The girls used to follow us
With their hearts going flippity -flop
Cause they knew we'd soon
the shuffle and the blues
Really done the job of brown
and Tuffy played the drum
And Stinky passed the hat around
Romancin' with the girls he knew
So we winked and flirted while we played
The sharpest needle was in town
and Tuffy played the drum
Stinky passed the hat around
When we split the nickels and dimes
We got our shares one day, but too fat
Tuffy said he had a sneaky idea
Stinky had a hole in his hat
We thought we had the world tied down
Stinky passed the hat around
