Dave Dudley - Pool Shark слова песни
He said pardon me for bein` so bold but you got a cigarette that`s already rolledI gave him one he lit it in his own good timeThe smoke in that poolroom hung like a fogWhen he talked it sounded like a growling dogHe said would you care for a dollar on the five or nineNow this man was ugly and his eyes were meanHis clothes were dirty but his hands were cleanHe held that stick like a mother holds the hand of the childWell I`ve been known to hustle a few when the waitress said was he playing youAnd I said yeah bring me brandy water byLittle Red Parker was way in the back taking quarters and hadling racksAnd I told him Red come up here glue `em up tightThat brandy had me feeling warm I tipped that waitress and I checked her formAnd I said honey you like a winner and she just smiledI played like a man with a broken wrist I won two and he won sixAnd I had him set up so I said let`s play for fiveBut this time the crowd had gathered round to see this fish and just watch him drownI told that waitress more brandy water byThen he went out and got a custom cue he said it`s no offence to youBut I don`t play off the wall with nobody but friendsHe had a gold initials in a leather grip pearly and silver inlaid tipHe smiled at me and he said hell-a-way we play for tenWell I never seen a man that walk who made those balls and table talkThey`re speaking English he sure didn`t need my helpHe broke the ball and kept that string for a hundred and eighty seven bucks and a ringTill I gave up and said friend you`re gonna have to play by yourselfWell he racked it up and walked outside and I strolled out just to watch him rideAnd there was a blonde in their Caddy built like the rest of that carThe boys in the poolroom they had `em a laugh and I hung it up and just let it passAnd had nothin` but my elbows to put on the barAnd the waitress smiled said water by I took the chairity and thanked her politeAnd sittin` there sippin` and suddenly I had me a thoughtUnlucky gambler and lucky in love guess you know what I was thinking ofWhen I said waitress honey what time do you get off
