      G                                         D
I’m a vendor of quack nostrums born in a Kansas shack
       D7                               C               G
I came down to Greenwich Village with a tea chest on my back
                                               D
I danced a while for Andy and crashed his Cadillac
        D7                      G
And now I’m just waiting for my ban.


             G               D              C             G

I’ve drank too much black coffee, read too much Bill Burroughs
     D7                                 C               G
I’ve been a “he”, I’ve been a “she”, a “maybe” and “who knows?”
                                        D
I’ve has the CBGBs, I’ve turkeyed way upstate
   D7                      G
So don’t you rock me, Daddio.
