Streets Of Miami
Allan Sherman

As I wandered out on the streets of Miami

I said to meinself, this is some fancy town

I called up mein partner and said, Hello, Sammy

Go pack up your satchel and mosey on down


I got me a bunk in the old Roney Plaza

With breakfast and dinner included of course

I caught 40 winks on mein private piazza

Then I rented a pinto from Hertz, Rent-a-Horse

He rented a pinto from Hertz Rent-a-Horse


My partner flew down on a non-scheduled airline

You never did see such a pale-looking man

I recognized him from his receding hairline

He recognized me from mein beautiful tan


T'was then that I heard fighting words from mein partner

He said, Marvin, the Roney is no place to stay

I'm going to the Fontainebleau, partner, it's mod'ner

And I'll charge to the firm 60 dollars a day

He'll charge to the firm 60 dollars a day


I said to him, Paleface, you hanker for trouble

With the company checkbook, you quick on the draw

He smiled and said, Stranger, for me that goes double

'Cause west of the Fontainebleau, I am the law


Next morning, the whole Lincoln road was deserted

And somewhere a hi fi was playing a tune

'Cause everyone knew someone's gonna be murdered

In a duel in the sun on the stroke of high noon

A duel in the sun at the stroke of high noon


I took careful aim with mein trusty revolver

The clock in the Fontainebleau struck 12 o'clock

I shot and Sam crumbled, just like a piece halvah

And that's what they called a bad day at Black Rock


They came with a posse and took mein sixgun away

The crowd was too angry to leave me in jail

The sheriff said, Outlaw, I'm gon' let you run away

But don't ever be seen south of Ft. Lauderdale


So now I can never go back to Miami

And New York is so cold that a person could die

I'd be better off dead like mein late partner Sammy

'Cause he's in that big Fontainebleau in the sky

'Cause he's in that big Fontainebleau in the sky
