Karaoké The Great Filling Station Holdup Jimmy Buffett

I pulled into the regular pump

I was feelin' quite at ease

I rolled down my window and told the man

Fifty cents worth please

Then out jumped my partner with his trusty pellet gun

He said Boy this is a holdup

Keep a-pumpin' and don't run

And now I wish I was somewhere other than here

Down in some honky tonk sippin' on a beer

Yes I wish I was somewhere other than here

Because that great fillin' station holdup cost me two good years

We got fifteen dollars and a can of STP

A big ol' jar of cashew nuts and a

Japanese TV

Feelin' we had pulled the biggest heist of our career

We're wanted men

We'll strike again

But first let's have a beer

Now I wish I was somewhere other than here

Down in some honky tonk sippin' on a beer

Yes I wish I was somewhere other than here

Because that great fillin' station holdup cost me two good years

We were sittin' in the Krystal about as drunk as we could be

In walked the deputy sheriff and he's holdin' our TV

He roughed us then he cuffed us and he took us off to jail

No pictures on a poster

No reward and no bail

And now I wish I was somewhere other than here

Down in some honky tonk sippin' on a beer

Yes I wish I was somewhere other than here

'Cos that great fillin' station holdup cost me two good years

'Cos that great fillin' station holdup it cost me two good years
