Shammy [chamois] cleaning all the windows,

Singing songs about Edith Piaf's soul.

For every Hank Williams railroad train that cried,

And all the chains, badges, flags and emblems

And every strain on every brain and every eye (?) 



As we gaze out on, as we gaze out on

As we gaze out on, as we gaze out on

Right about now your face should wear a smile. 



That's the way it all should happen

When you're in, when you're in the state you're in;
