Lido Shuffle





Lido Shuffle
Lido missed the boat that day he left the shack
But that was all he missed and he ain't comin' back
A tombstone bar in a juke-joint car, he made a stop
Just long enough to grab a handle off the top
Next stop Chi-town, Lido put the money down and let 'em roll
He said, "One more job ought to get it
One last shot fore we quit it - one for the road."

Lido, whoa
He's for the money, he's for the show
Lido's waitin' for the go
Lido, whoa
He said, "One more job ought to get it
One last shot fore we quit it - one more for the road."

Lido be runnin', havin' great big fun, until he got the note
Sayin' toe the line or blow and that was all she wrote
He be makin' like a beeline, headin for the borderline, goin' for broke
Sayin', "One more hit ought to do it
This joint ain't nothin to it - one more for the road."

Lido, whoa
He's for the money, he's for the show
Lido's waitin' for the go
Lido, whoa
One more job ought to get it
One last shot and we quit it - one more for the road

Lido, whoa
He's for the money, he's for the show
Lido's waitin' for the go
Lido, whoa
One more job ought to get it
