Transcriber: Awcantor@aol.comOh, my bucket got a hole in it

Oh, my bucket got a hole in it

Oh, my bucket got a hole in it

Can't buy no beerWhen you're walkin' down 31st Street

You had better look around

Police firin' squad is on their beat

An you'll be jailhouse bound(trumpet) 'Play it!'They ain't-a standin' on the corner

Ev'rything was so slow

Can't make no money

Tricks ain't walkin' no mo'(piano) 'Oh, play it, boy'Gonna start a new racket

Gonna start it out right

Gonna sell moonshine in the day

An peddle dope at nightThen if I can't make no money

Goin' a catch the Santa Fe

Goin'a drink good liquor

And let all women be.(trumpet & all to end) 'Pla-ay!'~

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
