Pencil Thin Moustache

Here it is. Got a lot more of these if anyone's interested. Be specific

though, don't just say, "hey send some more Buffett...". Me and some

other folks are currently working on a "Great Chords Compliation" of every

Buffett song ever released. The lyrics are already completed. You can

access via anonymous ftp to: ventura.cs.bsu.edu /pub/buffett/lyrics

Email me if you have any questions.

Later,

Pencil Thin Mustache

====================

By Jimmy Buffett

Now they make new movies in old black and white

With happy endings, where nobody fights

So if you find yourself in that nostalgic rage

Honey, jump right up and show your age

I wish I had a pencil thin mustache

The "Boston Blackie" kind

A two toned Ricky Ricardo jacket

And an autographed picture of Andy Devine

Oh I remember bein' buck-toothed and skinny

Writin' fan letters to Sky's niece Penny

Oh I wish I had a pencil thin mustache

Then I could solve some mysteries too

Oh it's Bandstand, Disneyland, growin' up fast

Drinkin' on a fake I.D.

And Rama of the jungle was everyone's Bawana

But only jazz musicians were smokin' marijuana

Yeah, I wish I had a pencil thin mustache

then I could solve some mysteries too

(same as above chords with this verse)

But then it's flat top, dirty bob, coppin' a feel

Grubbin' on the livin' room floor (so sore)

Yeah, they send you off to college, try to gain a little knowledge,

But all you want to do is learn how to score

Yeah, but now I'm gettin' old, don't wear underwear

I don't go to church and I don't cut my hair

But I can go to movies and see it all there

Just the way that it used to be

That's why I wish I had a pencil thin mustache

The "Boston Blackie" kind, a two-toned Ricky Ricardo jacket

And an autographed picture of Andy Devine

Oh, I could be anyone I wanted to be

Maybe suave Errol Flynn or a Sheik of Araby

If I only had a pencil thin mustache

Then I could do some cruisin' too

Yeah, Bryl-cream, a little dab'll do yah

Oh, I could do some cruisin' too
