PINBALL PAUL


as recorded by The Glenn Miller Orchestra
(vocals - Tex Beneke & The Modernaires)


Pinball Paul!

Stranger, step right up and meet the champ,
He's a winner, takes everybody into camp.
May we introduce to you,
Meet a pinball player
Lights every light,
Every night!

Pinball Paul beats them all,
Gets ten thousand every ball,
Pulls back the jigger, gives it a twist,
Lets it go and never has missed!

Pinball Paul gets the call,
Every record starts to fall!
Shoots with his eyes shut half o' the time,
Plays all day for only a dime!

Uncle Sam made Paul a proposition,
Gave him a commission.
Now when he helps them aim their rifles,
Hittin' bullseyes, it's just a game of trifles!

Pinball Paul gives his all
When he hears that bugle call.
He's in the army doin' his stuff;
Targets don't last long enough
To the champ o' them all,
Pinball Paul!

Pinball Paul gives his all
When he hears that bugle call.
Beats any game that was ever b�lled,
He's never had to to holler, "Kill!"
He's the champ o' them all,
Pinball Paul!
