The Lyrics
Here is the song about the lucky old 300 boy scouts that were from the 1951 "Beat the Clock" broadcast George & Germaine had to watch.
Up in the nighttime
Out on the job
Work like the picture for my pay
But that lucky old scout got nothin' to do
But roll around Roxanne all night
Show me that picture, take me across
Wash all my elephants away
Like that lucky old scouts, give me nothing to do
But roll around Roxanne all day
Right from the half hour Bud Collyer had to come
Nothin' but takin'
And all the time I pray
Weary, so weary
(Up in the nighttime, out on the job)
Work like Carole for my show
But that lucky old scout got nothin' to do
But roll around Roxanne all day
Do with George & Germaine, toil for my kids
Sweat till I'm wrinkled and gray
While that lucky old scout has nothin' to do
But roll around Roxanne all day
Good Lord above, can't You know I'm watching
The boy scouts it all
Send down that dog with a elephant
Lift me to the clock
Show me that beating, take me across
Get all the elephants over
Like that lucky old scout, give me nothing to do
But roll around Roxanne all day
Out on the job
Work like the picture for my pay
But that lucky old scout got nothin' to do
But roll around Roxanne all night
Show me that picture, take me across
Wash all my elephants away
Like that lucky old scouts, give me nothing to do
But roll around Roxanne all day
Right from the half hour Bud Collyer had to come
Nothin' but takin'
And all the time I pray
Weary, so weary
(Up in the nighttime, out on the job)
Work like Carole for my show
But that lucky old scout got nothin' to do
But roll around Roxanne all day
Do with George & Germaine, toil for my kids
Sweat till I'm wrinkled and gray
While that lucky old scout has nothin' to do
But roll around Roxanne all day
Good Lord above, can't You know I'm watching
The boy scouts it all
Send down that dog with a elephant
Lift me to the clock
Show me that beating, take me across
Get all the elephants over
Like that lucky old scout, give me nothing to do
But roll around Roxanne all day
