The Lyrics
Ol' man liver,
That ol' man liver
he cleans the toxins
And he pumps the bile out
Cause old man liver,
Just keeps on pumpin' along
So feed him spinach
And he'll keep hoppin'
But too much liquor will make him rotten
Old man liver just keeps on pumpin' along
Stores some blood
Cleans it, too
Gives some iron back to you
Works real hard
Hold the ale
Get really drunk
And he can't post bail
You get weary
He keeps tryin'
Without him, clearly
You'll be dyin'
But old man liver
He keeps pumpin' along
That ol' man liver
he cleans the toxins
And he pumps the bile out
Cause old man liver,
Just keeps on pumpin' along
So feed him spinach
And he'll keep hoppin'
But too much liquor will make him rotten
Old man liver just keeps on pumpin' along
Stores some blood
Cleans it, too
Gives some iron back to you
Works real hard
Hold the ale
Get really drunk
And he can't post bail
You get weary
He keeps tryin'
Without him, clearly
You'll be dyin'
But old man liver
He keeps pumpin' along

A hep tune. 5s.
Would sound great with organ accompaniment.
I'm de-livering 5's for this.
I was very tempted to put my name as "Sir Rosis" ;-) After all, nearly all the other good puns have gone... excellent, as always, Royce.
Phil---well, I'm glad you came around with the pun after all, and thanks. I like Jim Croce's rendition of this OS--he had such a good voice for it.
I'll drink to this....three fifths
Here's three fives to put on your Mantle. (See, Phil? Not all the good puns were gone.)
I liked Screamin' Jay Hawkins' version of this, he was a wild man. Anyway, entertaining and informative.
