Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sane, sane, they're all insane
Fireman's blind, the conductor is lame
A Cincinnati jacket and a sad luck dame
Hanging out the window with bottle full of rain
[Verse 2]
Clap hands, clap hands
Clap hands, clap hands
[Verse 3]
Said role, the thunder and the role
Son of a bitch is never coming back here no more
Moon in the window, and the bird on the pole
We can always find a millionaire to shovel all the coal
[Verse 4]
Clap hands, clap hands
Clap hands, clap hands
[Verse 5]
Said steam, steam a hundred bad dreams
Going up to Harlem with a pistol in his jeans
A fifty dollar bill inside a Paladin's hat
And nobody's sure where Mr. Knickerbocker's at
[Verse 6]
Role, role the thunder and the role
Son of a bitch is never coming back here no more
Moon in the window, and the bird on the pole
Always find a millionaire to shovel all the coal
[Verse 7]
Clap hands, clap hands
Clap hands, clap hands
[Verse 8]
I said steam, steam a hundred bad dreams
Going up to Harlem with a pistol in his jeans
A fifty dollar bill inside a Paladin's hat
And nobody's sure where Mr. Knickerbocker's at
[Verse 9]
Shine, shine a Roosevelt dime
All the way to Baltimore and running out of time
Salvation Army seemed to wind up in the hole
They all went to heaven in a little row boat
[Verse 10]
Clap hands, clap hands
Clap hands, clap hands
Clap hands, clap hands
Clap hands, clap hands
Well, clap hands, well clap hands
Oh, clap hands, clap hands
