Way back when before my hair was gone
I had a little group was playing Casey Jones
It was a really silly place to put a saxophone
But Peter made them change their minds
The wheels got rolling and the names got strange
The dogs got barking and the faces changed
Different hands were holding different rings
At different destinations
He purred like a kitten and howled at the moon
His fingers were smitten with pistols at noon
Most men's arms and legs can only move
But he'll sing like a bird and dance like a firefly
Most men's arms and legs can only move
Peter leaves them all behind
All those notes you thought were out of sight
Blowing French kisses on a Humboldt flight
Light up the heavens on a starlit night
Peter leaves them all behind
He purred like a kitten and howled at the moon
His fingers were smitten with pistols at noon
Most men's arms and legs can only move
But he'll sing like a bird and dance like a firefly
Most men's arms and legs can only move
Peter leaves them all behind
Most men's arms and legs can only move
Peter leaves them all behind
