Filipino Ray can sing it out    Like you would not believe    Always hais blond freckle faced lady    Dangling from his sleeve       Filipino Ray he played an old Les Paul    Big ol' jumbo fret    Had scars up on the headstock    From where he kept his lit cigarette       Filipino Ray had a fang tooth    And a face like a China moon    Them biker gals squealed when he'd flip his hair back    Step up to the mic and croon      Filipino Ray was a smiler    Quick with a tale or a joke    And more than happy to lend you his ear    Especially if you had brought him a fresh bourbon and coke       Filipino Ray had seen his share of demons    And many days of black    But when he picked his guitar and sang back to the bar    He pissed the monkey off his back       Now Filipino Ray he could belt it out    Like you would not believe    It's been 5 years for this guitar man    Since he rolled up his sleeve       Now Filipino Ray he's a smiler    Quick with a tale or a joke    He'd likely as not give you the shirt off his back    All over bourbon and coke
