Put Your Mouth Where The Money Is

(álbum: Checkpoint - 1977)

The Santa Rosa fair is in, with that 'Iron Man' McGinn
Who's gonna challenge the two
The man you can't knock down
But Danny Becker's gonna try
For his needs are kind of high
So he's gonna take on the 'Iron Man' tonight

Come and get your money, it's a hundred dollars a round
Put your mouth where the money is tonight
Lots and lots of money if you knock the champion down
Put your mouth where the money is tonight

Weighing in at Smokey Joe's, where the conversation's slow
There is 'Iron Man' McGinn
He's always odds on to win
He got his name in Idaho
Where upon a single blow
He knocked the door off the Maled city jail

Come and get your money, it's a hundred dollars a round
Put your mouth where the money is tonight
Lots and lots of money if you knock the champion down
Put your mouth where the money is tonight

Oh, put your mouth where the money is
Oh, put your mouth where the money is
Doo doo doo...

But Danny Becker's little friend, she knew how the fight would end
So she handicapped McGinn
By slipping 'Mickeys' in his gin
And so the might of 'Iron Man'
Will rust away like iron can
For Danny Becker's the winner here tonight

Come and get your money, it's a hundred dollars a round
Put your mouth where the money is tonight
Lots and lots of money if you knock the champion down
Put your mouth where the money is tonight
