The Manhattan Transfer - The Duke Of Dubuque lyrics

THE DUKE OF DUBUQUE



I'm known near and far

as the cousin to the Czar

I'm the Duke, Duke of Dubuque



It's well understood 

that my credit is no good, no good, no good

I'm the Duke of Dubuque



And if you don't believe me, and tell me it ain't true,

I've only got one answer, 

that answer's "mush" to you!

Now, au revoir, I must write the dear old Czar

I'm the Duke, Duke of Dubuque



I'm descended from the Romanovs in Russia

In the books my father was Czar in Russia

But he sailed away one day

to the state of Ioway

And that's how you'll find me in the USA



I'm the crackers, I'm the cheese

Yeah, call them Wolfhounds, if you please

Yes, I'm the Duke, I'm the Duke of Dubuque



No pork chops, no gravy for me

some legbones and black-eyed peas

Yes, I'm the Duke, I'm the Duke of Dubuque



And if you don't believe me, and tell me it ain't true,

I've only got one answer, 

That answer's "nuts" to you!



Now, fun to do, can you spare a buck or two?

I'm the Duke, Duke of Dubuque



He's the Duke, Duke of Dubuque

He's the Duke, Duke of Dubuque

Yes, I'm the Duke, the Duke of Dubuque

Doo dat doo dat doo dat Dubuque
