The Spirits Of Rhythm — Dr. Watson And Mr. Holmes lyrics

Lyrics

Well, they have a crime wavin'
And the papers all ravin'
And they hollerin' for a showdown
(Holmes) The Inspector can see that he’s gotta have me
(Inspector) What, what, Sherlock? The lowdown!
(Holmes) Cops can’t even solve a crime
(Watson) Bound to miss it every time
(Holmes) Now ain’t that awful, Doctor Watson?
(Watson) Simply lousy, Mr. Holmes!
(Holmes)
Now, when policemen have a case
Where they raid some gambling place
How they muff it, Doctor Watson!
(Watson) What’s the reason, Mr. Holmes?
(Holmes)
Well, by the time the cops catch on All the evidence is gone
Must be dumb as Doctor Watson
(Watson) Why, they’re morons, Mr. Holmes!
