tip jar

it’s gig time and y’all lookin’ fine, how do you like my tip jar
it’s empty now but in awhile, you’ll be filling that tip jar
this little song won’t last long, it’s all about my tip jar
you gotta know where to put the dough...
it goes in my tip jar, tip jar, tip jar

put some denaro in my tip jar
i’ll say thank you and god bless
if you like what you hear, put some greenbacks in there
dead presidents belong in my tip jar

make a request, i’ll do my best, say hello to the tip jar
it’s open tonight, all money fits right, singing ‘bout my tip jar
tens, fives, ones, as good as it comes, filling up that tip jar
if you can spare a dime, i’ll find the time to show you
my tip jar, tip jar, tip jar

chorus

a pickle jar, my stetson hat, even a guitar case
brandy snifter, piggy bank, a priceless ming vase
all have held the working title of my loving tip jar
come on up with money in hand i’ll rock this bar

break

chorus

dead presidents belong in my tip jar
(spoken) y’all be good to your servers, they work hard for you
be sure to pick up my new cd at the door...
and don’t forget to do what?.... fill up your tip jar! (shouted out by audience)
