[Verse 1] I rolled in with a bent-up grin And a boot full of borrowed luck Your harbor had a knack for trouble And I had a rusty cup The mayor said, "Boy, behave" I tipped my hat, said, "We’ll see" Then I stole the map off his table And the whole room started after me [Pre-Chorus] Oh, the bells went bad Oh, the floorboards thumped Every fool in the room got brave When the old brass band got pumped [Chorus] Huzzah, huzzah Raise the tin cup high Huzzah, huzzah We were born to lie (huzzah) Huzzah, huzzah Kick the dust and laugh If the world wants a duel We’ll dance right past [Verse 2] Your sister sold moonshine lemonade From a cart with a missing wheel Your cousin played cards with pirates And lost on the last deal I kissed a ring on a pickled hand Then I ran through the bakery door With flour on my coat and apples Rolling clean across the floor [Pre-Chorus] Oh, the chandeliers Started swinging low Every crooked soul in town Found a reason not to go [Chorus] Huzzah, huzzah Raise the tin cup high Huzzah, huzzah We were born to lie (huzzah) Huzzah, huzzah Kick the dust and laugh If the world wants a duel We’ll dance right past [Bridge] Now the moon’s got a grin like yours And the docks are singing too We don’t need a crown or blessing Just a drum, a wink, and you So pass that grin around the room Let the trouble take a bow One wild toast for the broken things We can fix them later now [Final Chorus] Huzzah, huzzah Raise the tin cup high Huzzah, huzzah We were born to lie (huzzah) Huzzah, huzzah Kick the dust and laugh If the world wants a duel We’ll dance right past Huzzah, huzzah Till the ceiling shakes Huzzah, huzzah Let the rafters break (huzzah) Huzzah, huzzah Sing it back to me We’re the mess, we’re the cheer We’re the key to free
