《The Dry Cleaner From Des Moines》歌词

[00:00:01] --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[00:00:21] I'm down to a roll of dimes

[00:00:23] I'm stalking the slot that's hot

[00:00:25] I keep hearing bells all around me

[00:00:28] Jingling in the lucky jackpots

[00:00:30] They keep you tantalized

[00:00:31] They keep you reaching for your wallet

[00:00:33] Here in fools' paradise

[00:00:35] I talked to a cat from des moines

[00:00:38] He said he ran a cleaning plant

[00:00:40] That cat was clanking with coin

[00:00:42] Well he must have had a genie in a lamp

[00:00:45] 'Cause every time--i dropped a dime--i blew it

[00:00:47] He kept ringing bells

[00:00:48] Nothing to it

[00:00:50] He got three oranges

[00:00:51] Three lemons

[00:00:52] Three cherries

[00:00:53] Three plums

[00:00:53] I'm losing my taste for fruit

[00:00:55] Watching the dry cleaner do it

[00:00:57] Like midas in a polyester suit

[00:01:00] It's all luck

[00:01:01] It's just luck

[00:01:03] You get a little lucky and you make a little money

[00:01:21] I followed him down the strip

[00:01:24] He picked out a booth at circus circus

[00:01:26] Where the cowgirls fill the room

[00:01:28] With their big balloons

[00:01:29] The cleaner was pitching with purpose

[00:01:31] He had dinos and pooh bears

[00:01:32] And lions--pink and blue there

[00:01:34] He couldn't lose there

[00:01:51] Des moines was stacking the chips

[00:01:53] Raking off the tables

[00:01:54] Ringing the bandit's bells

[00:01:56] This is a story that's a drag to tell

[00:01:58] (in some ways)

[00:01:59] Since i lost every dime

[00:02:00] I laid on the line

[00:02:01] But the cleaner from des moines

[00:02:03] Could put a coin

[00:02:04] In the door of a john

[00:02:06] And get twenty for one

[00:02:08] It's just luck
