Proud Larry
c2008 by C M Strong--but sing it if you want to.
Tune "Proud Mary"

CCC A CCC A CCC A G FFFF D
D
Waitin' to leave the Twin Cities
Killin' some time on a toilet seat
The Senator loved danger/Lookin' for a stranger
Signalin' in code with his nervous feet
A                               Bm                G            
Wonderin' what would happen/Proud Larry kept on tappin'
D
Tappin'(3) in the crapper CCC A CCC A CCC A G FFFF D
D
Larry was layin' out a rhythm
Waitin' for an answer from the guy next door
He realized his blunder/When a hand came reachin' under
With a big, shiny badge that he couldn't ignore
A                                         Bm                                 
The cop said, "You're under arrest./So I guess you'd better get
G
dressed--
                D
You were tappin' (3) in the crapper." CCC A CCC A CCC A G FFFF D
Inst
Larry had to go to the station
For bein' disorderly and publicly lewd
The cop interrogatin'/while Larry was relatin'
That the actions of his feet were being misconstrued
He said he was protectin' his pants/By adopting an extra-wide stance
And he was tappin'… CCC A CCC A CCC A G FFFF D


He didn't want to sign a confession
But a quorum call was comin', and he had to go
He said, "I'm not gay, but I'll sign it anyway--
And hope it doesn't make the news in Idaho."
But, folks, that's just what happened/When Proud Larry got caught tappin'.
Tappin' (3) in the crapper."
Tappin' (3) in the crapper."

Some of the Bm---G got misplaced by the linebreaker. You'll hear it.

Thanks, Mick. If people say they like it, tell 'em who wrote it. (An old folkie from Illinois.)If homophobic neocons approach, you never heard of me.
