[00:00:00] Rack Up The Balls Boys - Rex Allen

[00:00:05] Rack up the balls boys

[00:00:06] Put away the cues

[00:00:08] Old father time is on the trail

[00:00:10] And he ain't gonna lose

[00:00:12] When he deals your number

[00:00:13] He's gonna call your name

[00:00:15] It ain't no joke

[00:00:16] That's all she wrote

[00:00:17] This may be your last game

[00:00:19] It was down in Higgins poolroom

[00:00:21] On the corner of the square

[00:00:23] A flea-bitten crowd had gathered

[00:00:24] And sweet music filled the air

[00:00:27] Old honest john was taking bets

[00:00:28] When dice bounced off the wall

[00:00:30] From a heart attack

[00:00:31] He staggered back

[00:00:32] He covered his last call

[00:00:34] So rack up the balls boys

[00:00:37] Put away the cues

[00:00:38] Old father time is on the trail

[00:00:40] And he ain't gonna lose

[00:00:42] Old honest john was taking bets

[00:00:44] When dice bounced off the wall

[00:00:46] From a heart attack

[00:00:46] He staggered back

[00:00:47] He covered his last call

[00:01:04] A big rough man was Willie jones

[00:01:06] The bully of our town

[00:01:07] But in a fight he lost one night

[00:01:09] And he was smitten down

[00:01:11] The guy that threw the cue ball

[00:01:13] Was no bigger than a flea

[00:01:15] Yet Willie held a lily

[00:01:17] That he couldn't smell nor see

[00:01:19] So rack up the balls boys

[00:01:21] Put away the cues

[00:01:23] Old father time is on the trail

[00:01:25] And he ain't gonna lose

[00:01:26] The guy that threw the cue ball

[00:01:28] Was no bigger than a flea

[00:01:30] Yet Willie held a lily

[00:01:32] That he couldn't smell nor see

[00:01:34] In every town

[00:01:35] There is some bird

[00:01:36] Who's heavy on the boast

[00:01:38] I've news for you

[00:01:39] I know a man who's walking awfully close

[00:01:41] He's got a scythe in his right hand

[00:01:43] And wears a long grey beard

[00:01:45] Smart alec guy

[00:01:46] I bet you'll cry

[00:01:47] When he pins back your ears

[00:01:49] So rack up the balls boys

[00:01:51] Put away the cues

[00:01:53] Old father time is on your trail

[00:01:55] And he ain't gonna lose

[00:01:57] He's got a scythe in his right hand

[00:01:58] And wears a long grey beard

[00:02:00] Smart alec guy

[00:02:01] I bet you'll cry when he pins back your ears

[00:02:19] Some like to come in loaded

[00:02:21] And give their wife a scare

[00:02:23] She'll probably marry another shortly

[00:02:24] After you ain't here

[00:02:26] So if you wanna stick around

[00:02:28] Don't have another drink

[00:02:30] But go home now

[00:02:31] It's getting late

[00:02:32] It's later than you think

[00:02:33] So rack up the balls boys

[00:02:36] Put away the cues

[00:02:37] Old father time is on the trail

[00:02:39] And he ain't gonna lose

[00:02:41] So if you wanna stick around

[00:02:43] Don't have another drink

[00:02:45] But go home now

[00:02:47] It's getting late

[00:02:49] It's later than you think
