Testo di Syncopatin Sandy

When I was just a kid way back in my hometown There was a crazy little man who once came around Syncopatin' Sandy was the stranger's name Playing marathon piano, that was Sandy's game. He played all day, he played all night After 48 hours he was still alright We fed him whiskey from a paper cup And we wondered how long he could keep it up. How long? how long? How long? how long? Well his eyes are rollin' and he can't even speak The spirit's willing but the flesh is weak How long? how long? How long? how long? People would come and the people would go And the people all agreed it wasn't much of a show They all Sandy must be weak in the head And if he didn't stop soon he would drop down dead. He played all day, he played all night After 96 hours he was still alright We fed him whiskey from a paper cup And we wondered how long he could keep it up. How long? how long? How long? how long? Well his eyes are rollin' and he can't even speak The spirit's willing but the flesh is weak How long? how long? How long? how long? (fade) How long? how long?
