Jukebox Man

Mel Tillis

Compositor: Buck Peddy / Mel Tillis

I'm gonna get a bunch of nickels gonna buy em by the roll
Gonna put em in the juke and watch the record go
I love to hear the beating of a flat guitar
And a bass a fiddle slappin' it eight to the bar

Well I could sit here and listen to it all night long
It's the ricky ticky rhythm of a jukebox song
But when it comes to music I'm the number one fan
And everybody's callin' me the jukebox man

Well the dawn is jumpin' with be-bop-a-do
I'm a puttin' in nickels it's way past two
A cute little blonde she's a hangin' on my arm
But the music from the juke has done got my charm
