I've got a little love story I wanna do for you now
This is a love story like, uh, like this
Here we go
Way back in '29, 1929
Somewhere in Coffeyville, I don't know where that is
Was a Honkytonk named Big Mable Murphy
She had a sweetheart, Mean Little Melvin
And hair would fly between them every Saturday night
Why? Because Little Melvin
He got wild on bathtub gin, I had some of that
Well, it made him feel he was almost twice his size, yeah
So he'd try to take over and sass big Mable
But her great big fist would black little Melvin's eyes
You see, Big Mable Murphy
She loved her Little Melvin, he was a midget
But he never did learn to do just what she said
'Cause poor Little Melvin, woke up early every morning, yes he did
With two black eyes and knuckle bumps on his head
Late one rainy night, oh, oh
Scarface Moose Luna, he looked like a pit boss
He came in and started shoving everybody around
And, Big Mable Murphy, she was way back in the kitchen
So just for fun ol' Scarface, shot Little Melvin down
Early next morning, hop, hop, down by the river, woo
They say old Scarface was found real short of breath
They say he died, uh oh, the man died from a good ol' whipping
He had two black eyes and knuckle bumps on his head
Then Big Mabel, hop, hop
Big Mabel Murphy, she gave him two black eyes and knuckle bumps on his head
Hop, hop, hop
All right
Thank you
Ooh, right in the mic?
Thank you
