Wyatt Earp Makes Me Burp

歌詞

Probably no form of music has benefited more from the development of high-fidelity recording, than the great American folk song. Observe in this stirring Western ballad how the living presence of the voice adds emotional impact and power to the dramatic story of Wyatt Earp. Now here is a tale of the old Wild West! Our hero wore a shiny star on his vest He was known to always uphold the law A real man's man and quick on the draw Wyatt Earp! That was his name And this is the story how he won fame: It started in a lawless town. There were lots of real bad hombres around. They laughed at the law; They didn't care. There were 22 sheriffs buried there. Thurl: "We need a man to uphold the law; A real man's man and quick on the draw." Freddy: "You're right, but don't forget Big Red. Every sheriff we hire, he fills full of lead." Thurl: "Well how 'bout hirin' Wyatt Earp?" Mousie: "Wyatt Earp? He makes me burp" (Inst: Shave and a haircut - burp burp!) George: "Well, I seen why. I'm a tellin' no lie. He faced two hombres with blood in their eye. They started to draw; They were ready for fightin' But Wyatt's draw was like greased lightnin'. In a second those two hombres were dead. Mighty heavy, too, all full of lead." Crowd: "Wyatt Earp! That's our man! Let's get him here as fast as we can!" Thurl: "Well, one day, a stranger came riding in With cold blue eyes and a big square chin Two six-guns strapped on his hips A dangerous man with tight grim lips. In less than a minute the news got around Wyatt Earp had come to town! At the Silver Dollar, things were goin' full blast When Wyatt glanced in as he walked past: He stopped and went inside instead 'Cause standin' at the bar was - Big Red! (Instrumental: villain theme) Red (George Rock): "I've just robbed the bank" Thurl" "...he shouted with glee..." Red: "Everybody step up; The drinks are on me. Let's drink to that yellow skunk Wyatt Earp" Mousie: "Wyatt Earp? He makes me burp" (Inst: Shave and a haircut - burp burp!) Thurl: "Suddenly it got as quiet is could be. Big Red just stared, for in the mirror he could see Wyatt standin' there with a smile on his lips And those two famous six-shooters hangin' at his hips. Suddenly, the spell was broke. It was Wyatt who very softly spoke, Wyatt: "Howdy, Big Red, I'm Wyatt Earp" Mousie: "Wyatt Earp? He makes me burp" (Inst: Shave and a haircut - burp burp!) SFX: Bang Bang Bang Bang! Whizz - "Ooof!" Thurl: "Well, the rest is only history. Wyatt had a draw just like lightning, you see. Red never should have tangled with Wyatt Earp." Mousie: "Wyatt Earp? He makes me burp." Inst: "Shave and a haircut..." (silence) "Shave and a haircut..." (silence) Spike: "I guess he ran out of gas."
