There was an old miner With a mule named Diner His name was Philip Morris Well, bless my soul And one spring day As he went along his way He made a lucky strike And he fasted on an old ghost
He said, you know what I'm gonna do I'm gonna do everything I ever wanted to
So he took old Diner On a big ocean liner The Thick Top Box Was the name on the side He told captain to fist troy You better be a nice boy And take me and Diner On a long ocean line
Cause I got enough gold to have you To do everything I ever wanted to
Say the commander, welcome aboard
He asked him not to fail 'em He wanted him to sail 'em All around the world, tell the ghost-spell He wanted to go a places To see a cool old aces To Alpine Mountains and visit Parliament He wanted to dock on a New Port Ride on a camel And do the car a new, hit the ray Well, see his hotel mate His old guest sailin' by Of course, proof, pack for his own news bag
So now he is back in an one-room shack Ain't nobody there but him and his mule If you ever pass by and you wanna know why He just sittin' there, being real cool
Don't you know what he's gonna tell you He's done everything he ever wanted to
