Lyrics
Smugglin' Man
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'm an old time smugglin' man and I know just what to do
I'm an old time smugglin' man and I know just what to do
I sell guns to the Arabs,
I sell dynamite to the Jews
I'm a rum runner, and I built myself a ship
I'm a rum runner, and I built myself a ship
No matter how many slaves I sell
I have just enough money for one more trip
I sell whiskey to the Indians and I smuggle in the gin
I sell whiskey to the Indians and I smuggle in the gin
If you want anything illegal
Ask old Timmie to bring it in
I'm an old time smugglin' man and I know just what to do
I'm an old time smugglin' man and I know just what to do
I sell guns to the Arabs,
I sell dynamite to the Jews
