Never could carry a tune. Never knew where to start. You came along when ev'rything was wrong. And put a song in my heart. . [Chorus]. Dear, when you smiled at me.
I had myself a day job. Pumpin' gasoline. A dollar a day is all they pay. And I just can't make that scene. That's why I'm thumbin' a ride. Thumbin' a ride.
He's got a house made of glass. Got his own swimming pool...what a gas. We've got a one-room shack. Five by six by the railroad track, well. . What about us.

Three cool cats, three cool cats. Parked on the corner in a beat-up car. Dividing up a nickel candy bar. Talking all about how sharp they are, these. Three cool cats.
