WASHINGTON -- Sens. Bill Nelson and Tom Coburn of Oklahoma busted out some high notes as they serenaded a crowd with the song "Rocket Man" Wednesday.

Coburn had to sing the song to pay off a bet, and Nelson, being a good sport, helped him out.
     
Coburn had to pay up after the Florida Gators beat the Oklahoma Sooners in the BCS title game.

Nelson chose "Rocket Man" because he is a former astronaut.
