[00:12.72]	When Jack Frost came for Christmas
[00:16.16]	With a brass monkey date
[00:19.22]	The rail-king and the scarecrow
[00:21.76]	Hopped a Florida freight
[00:24.68]	And they blew on their paper cups
[00:28.52]	And stared through the steam
[00:30.71]	Then they drank half a bottle
[00:34.09]	Of Ragpicker＇s Dream where
[00:37.08]	The whiskey keeps following
[00:39.83]	Cold pitchers of beer
[00:43.76]	Me and my associate
[00:45.70]	Like the clientele here get
[00:48.74]	The onions and the ＇taters
[00:52.89]	Rib-eyes on the grill
[00:55.71]	Toothpicks and luckies
[00:57.64]	And a coffee refill as
[01:12.72]	The rail-king lay rocking
[01:16.94]	He was leaving the ground
[01:18.74]	Then he was flying like Santa Claus
[01:22.60]	Over the town where
[01:24.79]	He came to the window
[01:27.91]	Of a house by a stream
[01:31.16]	It was a family Christmas
[01:33.97]	In the Ragpicker＇s Dream there
[01:38.40]	Were kids at the table
[01:42.59]	All aglow in the light
[01:45.34]	Music in the wintertime
[01:47.53]	Sure carries at night there
[01:50.72]	Was turkey and gravy
[01:54.40]	Pie and ice cream
[01:58.09]	And gifts for each and everyone
[02:00.91]	In the Ragpicker＇s Dream where
[02:03.97]	The red-eye keeps tumbling
[02:06.90]	In our glasses of beer
[02:10.79]	Me and my associate
[02:12.84]	Like the service in here there＇s
[02:16.57]	A ten for your trouble
[02:19.01]	You have beautiful hair
[02:22.14]	Make the last one two doubles
[02:24.82]	It＇s a cold one out there where
[02:29.62]	The scarecrow and the rail-king
[02:33.05]	Have started to dance
[02:35.54]	But a nightstick and a billyclub
[02:38.41]	Won＇t give peace a chance here
[02:41.35]	I think they went thataways
[02:45.16]	Your song and dance team
[02:48.03]	Heading home for the holidays
[02:52.54]	With the Ragpicker＇s Dream on
[02:56.53]	His knees like a fighter
[03:00.28]	The rail-riding king
[03:03.16]	Like a sack of potatoes
[03:05.34]	Like a bull in the ring where
[03:08.61]	The scarecrow falls over
[03:12.17]	With a tear in the seam
[03:19.29]	Home for the rover
[03:22.10]	In the Ragpicker＇s Dream where
[03:25.22]	The red-eye keeps tumbling
[03:28.14]	Like tears in our beer
[03:31.91]	Me and my associate
[03:33.89]	Like the ambience here where
[03:37.06]	They cornered two castaways
[03:40.75]	In a white flashlight beam
[03:47.38]	Merry Christmas and happy days
[03:50.69]	In the Ragpicker＇s Dream
