Garland Jeffreys Eggs Lyrics

Don't put all your eggs in one basket
You're bound to find a bad one in the bunch
Don't put all your kegs in one casket
The undertaker's gonna beat you to the punch

Mind what you do
It'll come right back to you
Mind what you say (oh)
Honey chile you gonna be better off that way

Don't put all your faith in one leader
Ah that leader he's gonna take you out to lunch Don't put all your dimes in one meter
The meter maid's gonna beat you to the punch

Siftin' sand and drinkin' brew
Won't harm you
Ya better watch out for the
Man who's on your right
Oh he's dressеd in blue, he
Looks like you and hе's on you
He's the undertaker's brother in the night

Do the egg now
Over easy
Like 'em greasy
Sunnyside with you
