Lyrics:
Trousers draggin', slowly draggin' through the street
Yes I'm walkin', but I'm walkin' without feet!
I'm not findin' fault at all
With what's too big and what's too small
But Sam, Sam you promised me both ends would meet!
You made the coat and vest
Fit the best
You made the lining nice and strong,
But Sam, you made the pants too long!
You made the peak lapel
Look so swell,
Who am I to say you're wrong?
But Sam, you made the pants too long!
They got the belt and they got suspenders
So what can they lose?
But what good are belts,what good suspenders,
When the pants are hangin' over the shoes?
You feel a winter breeze
Up and down the knees,
The belt is where the tie belongs,
'Cause Sam, Sam, Sam, you made the pants too long!
Know what I mean, Sam?
