She could guzzle a barrel of sour wine,

And eat a hog without peeling the rind,

G             D7     G
Hinky, dinky, parley-voo.
The MPS think they won the war, Parley-voo. The MPS think they won the war, Parley-voo. The MPS think they won the war, Standing guard at the café door, Hinky, dinky, parley-voo.
