Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][C]

[Verse 1]
One fine [C]day as I was a-
walkin' down the street
Spied a beggar man with
rags upon his [G]feet
Took a [C]penny from my pocket
In his [F]tin cup, I did [G]drop [F]it[G]
[F]And I [C]heard him say as [G]I
made my retreat
[C]

[Verse 2]
May the bird of paradise fly up your nose
May an elephant caress
you with his [G]toes
May [C]your wife be plagued
with runners in her [F]hose
May the [C]bird of paradis[G]e fly up your nose

[Interlude 1]
[C]

[Verse 3]
My [C]laundry man is really on his toes
Found a hundred- dollar bill
among [G]my clothes
When he [C]called me I came runnin'
Gave [F]him back his dime for phonin'
I [C]heard him sayin' [G]as I turned to go
[C]

[Verse 4]
May the bird of paradise
fly up your nose
May an elephant caress you with his [G]toes
May [C]your wife be plagued
with runners in her [F]hose
May [C]the bird of paradis
[G]e fly up your nose

[Interlude 2]
[C][G][C]

[Verse 5]
I was [C]way behind one [G]day
to catch a [C]train
The taxi driver said,
"we'll make it just [G]the same"
A [C]speed cop made in with us
And as [F]he wrote out the ticket
I stood [C]by politely [G]waitin'
for my change
[C]

[Verse 6]
May the bird of paradise
fly up your nose
May an elephant caress you with his [G]toes
May [C]your wife be plagued
with runners in her [F]hose
May the [C]bird of paradis
[G]e fly up you[C]r nose

[Verse 7]
[C]May the bird of paradise
fly up your nose
May an elephant caress you with his [G]toes
May [C]your wife be plagued
with [F]runners in her hose
