Beto Shuffle
(with apologies to Boz Scaggs)
Beto missed the boat that day he left the shack
But that was all he missed
And he ain't comin' back
At a tombstone bar, in a juke joint car he made a stop
Just long enough to grab a handle off the top
Next stop Border town, Beto put the money down, let 'em roll
He said one more job ought to get it
One last shot 'fore we quit it
One for the road
Beto
Whoah oh oh oh
He's for the money, he's for the show
Beto's waitin' for the go, Beto
Whoah oh oh oh oh oh
He said one more job ought to get it
One last shot 'fore we quit it
One more for the road
Beto will be runnin', havin' great big funnin' till he got the note
Sayin' toe the line or blow it and that was all she wrote
He'll be makin' like a bee line, headin' for the border line, goin' for broke
Sayin' one more hit ought to do it
This joint ain't nothin' to it
One more for the road
Beto
Whoah oh oh oh
He's for the money, he's for the show
Beto's waitin' for the go, Beto
Whoah oh oh oh oh oh
One more job ought to get it
One last shot then we quit it
One more for the road
Beto
Woah oh oh oh
He's for the money, he's for the show
Beto's waitin' for the go, Beto
Woah oh oh oh oh oh
One more job ought to get it
