The ripple went round
'Stranger in town - ignoring the Management
- bit of a clown...'
And he come tipping tables
And he come without cash
And he come without credit
No gambling trash

The fact is Stranger
Action and word
The fact is Stranger
Truth is preferred
The Casino is shaking since the Stranger occurred

The ripple went round
'Joker in play - forget the tables -
hear him today...'
And he talked to the pimps
And the cheats and the whores
And he talked about daylight
And he opened the doors

The ripple went round
'Stranger about - the Management hate him
But his game's got some clout...'
And he spoke about freedom
And life beyond winning
And the management scowled
But Our Jimmy was grinning

But he had no commitment
To the Management cause
And he stayed quite indifferent
To insult or applause

Then the bosses got Stranger for good
And for sure
The tables were turned back -
They showed him the door
The crowds disappeared
When the bouncers got mean
And they dragged him away
To be wiped from the scene
Then they mopped off their brows
With a sigh of relief
The Casino was saved
From the one they called 'Thief'
