Oh ABb7ha Eb7 Bb7

Well I walk while they talk about virtue

Just raised on my back legs and snarled

Watched you kiss your old daddy with passion

And tell dirty jokes as he died

CHORUS

But I'm damned when I really care there

For the cellar's the room in your lives

Where you lace yourself with bad whiskey

And close the cage doors on your life

[CHORUS x2]

Well I pray while you bathe in bad water

Sing songs that I learnt as a boy

Then break all the bones in my body

On the bars you can never destroy

[FIRST VERSE]
