William Butler Yeats in jeans , Got up to play guitar and sing . In some joint in Mission Beach last night . At the door sat Tom Waits, In a pork pie hat and silver skates. Jugglin three collection plates, Jesus Christ. Townes Van Zandt standin at the bar . Skinnin a Hollywood movie star , Cant remember where he parked his car ,Or to whom he lost the keys. Full of angst and hillbilly haiku , Whats a poor Ft. Worth boy to do ? Go on rhyme somethin for em man . Show him how you really feel. Chorus Aint no money in poetry .Thats what sets the poet free. Ive had all the freedom I can stand . Cold dog soup and rainbow pie . Is all it takes to get me by . Fool my belly till the day I die . Cold dog soup and rainbow pie. Ginsberg and Kerouac Shootin dice, and playin Ramblin Jacks guitar. With the cowboy paintin pickguard on it , And they sat in the back and drank for free. And rhymed orange with Rosalie. Now theres a pride of lions to draw .
