Sucker Row

[Verse 1]
Somebody's gotta crack a whip around here
Who's mindin' the store?
Shake it up, sell some beer
What's your money maker for?
Pay day we're packin' 'em in
Six gun Annie and buffalo Jill

[Chorus]
But who's to say they'll be back again
For a refill?
Honey, you know the drill

[Verse 2]
Ain't no left turn down sleepy time street
You gotta be fast but you gotta stay loose
Thinkin' on your feet
Slick as grass through a goose
We gotta rationalise
The payroll is givin' me chills

[Chorus]
You and me is gettin' organised
It's kill or be killed
Honey, you know the drill

[Bridge]
Well they can all look down on sucker row
But they all forget
The tallest trees from acorns grow
Though they ain't yet
I never look down on a sucker stake
They all pay the bills
I never gave a sucker an even break
And I never will

[Verse 3]
A beautiful vision keeps comin' to me
I see a miracle mile
Flyin' in for free
Service with a smile
High rollers, fancy hotels
Big-time singers toppin' the bill

[Chorus]
You gotta have a feel for the stuff that sells
Call it a skill
Honey, you know the drill

[Verse 4]
Somebody's gotta crack a whip around here
Who's mindin' the store?
Shake it up, sell some beer
Money walkin' through the door
Annie's arrivin' at a dangerous age
Don't you go gettin' ill?

[Chorus]
Get another woman up in the cage
Who ain't over the hill
Honey, you know the drill

[Outro]
Somebody's gotta crack a whip around here
