lyrics

Sane sane they're all insane
The fireman's blind the conductors lame
A Cincinatti jacket and a sad luck dame
Hanging out the window with a bottle full of rain

Clap hands clap hands
Clap hands clap hands

Said roar roar the thunder and the roar
Son of a bitch is never comin' back here no more
Moon in the window a bird on the pole
Can always find a millionaire to shovel all the coal

Clap hands clap hands
Clap hands clap hands

Steam steam a hundred bad dreams
Goin' up to Harlem with a pistol in his jeans
A fifty dollar bill inside a Palladin's hat
And nobody's sure where Mr. Knickerbocker's at

Said roar roar the thunder and the roar
Son of a bitch is never comin' back here no more
Moon in the window a bird on the pole
Can always find a millionaire to shovel all the coal

Clap hands clap hands
Clap hands clap hands

Shine shine a Roosevelt dime
All the way to Baltimore and runnin' out of time
Salvation Army seemed to wind up in the hole
They all went to Heaven in the little row boat

Clap hands clap hands
Clap hands clap hands
