Robert Earl Keen - 10,000 Chinese Walk into a Bar lyrics

10000 chinese walk into a bar and order up a beer The barman says, it's funny you know we don't get many Chinese in here Now I don't know if I got it right maybe no one knows It's just a joke I heard one night and that's the way it goes I'll have one of those (Chorus) Grab a chair and stay all night Make yourself at home I may be wrong but that's alright I am not alone A little man in this little town, he wears a lot of hats He's always out tomcattin' around, he's got a thing for cats Now I ain't seen him with a cat I so ain't really sure But listen close 'cause when he talks, sometimes you hear him purr There ain't a cure (Chorus) Another man he loved duct tape, he made a duct tape suit And he had duct tape from the top of his hat to the heel of his cowboy boot And when he died they buried him down down in that cold cold ground And they stuff him in that pine box boy and then they taped him down I was out of town (Chorus) (Instrumental) And then there was this Irishman who, uh, stayed drunk all time I'm sorry friend I screwed that up, I told you the punch line Anyway I got to split, they're just about to close But I'll be back tomorrow night 'cause that the way it goes Yeah that's the way it goes
