You Can't Fool The Fat Man lyrics
Song information
Artist: Randy Newman Album: Little Criminals
Lyrics
Sittin' with the fat man Tryin' to get a loan Talkin' about horses And the women that we've known
Spittin' on the sidewalk Squintin' into the sun Greetin' all the people Smilin' at everyone
I said "hey, listen, fat man I just can't get a break Must I pay my whole life long For just one mistake?
"My brother's in the armed forces My sister is in jail Won't you give me fifty dollars So I can pay her bail?"
He said "you can't fool the fat man No, you can't fool me You're just a two-bit grifter And that's all you'll ever be"
