Each Bb7 is actually a Bb7/6, if you're a musician...you know what this means. 
Bb7         Eb9
A cab combs the snake,
Bb7         Eb9
Tryin' to rake in that last night's fare,
Bb7
And a solitary sailor
                        Am7                  D7
Who spends the facts of his life like small change on strangers...
Bb7                                Eb9
Paws his inside P-coat pocket for a welcome twenty-five cents,
Bb7                                Eb9
And the last bent butt from a package of Kents,
Bb7
As he dreams of a waitress with Maxwell House eyes
                 Am7                   D7
And marmalade thighs with scrambled yellow hair.
Bb7                                Eb9
Her rhinestone-studded moniker says, "Irene"
Bb7                                Eb9       Bb7
As she wipes the wisps of dishwater blonde from her eyes
Am7  D7
Bb7                    Eb9
And the Texaco beacon burns on,
Bb7                    Eb9                          Bb7
The steel-belted attendant with a 'Ring and Valve Special'...
                       Am7
Cryin' "Fill'er up and check that oil"
                                             D7
"You know it could be a distributor and it could be a coil."
Bb7                                  Eb9
The early mornin' final edition's on the stands,
Bb7                                     Eb9
And that town cryer's cryin' there with nickels in his hands.
Bb7                    Am7   D7
Pigs in a blanket sixty-nine cents,
Bb7                                  Eb9
Eggs - roll 'em over and a package of Kents,
Bb7                                  Eb9    Bb7
Adam and Eve on a log, you can sink 'em damn straight,
Am7                            D7
Hash browns, hash browns, you know I can't be late.
Bb7                                  Eb9
And the early dawn cracks out a carpet of diamond
Bb7                                  Eb9
Across a cash crop car lot filled with twilight Coupe Devilles,
                  Am7
Leaving the town in a-keeping
                        D7
Of the one who is sweeping
           Bb7         Eb9
                           Outro
Up the ghost of Saturday night...
