Daddy was a dirty fighting man 
He walked tall with his money in his shoe 
With a left and a right 
And a sonny say goodnight 
Eyes were a cold steel blue 
 
Momma went down like a ton of coal 
Shared her bed with anyone who dared 
Wash your hands 
Take it like a man 
Never let em know your scared 
Never let em know your scared 
 
Oh, what shall we do with the drunken failure? 
Shanghai the bastard to Australia 
If we never see you again 
Buddy that'll be too soon 
Everybody knows that the odds ain't even 
Show me a god that's worth believing 
Better place your bets cause the boat is leaving 
Underneath an eastern moon 
Underneath an eastern moon 
 
Sissy had a thing for contraband 
Nose to the grindstone 
Finger in the pie 
No way out 
Give the kid a clout 
Drowned her in a pint of rye 
 
Brother was a drunken gambling man 
Rolled his dice and always played the fool 
Roll 'em high 
Sock 'em in the eye 
Beat him like a rented mule 
Beat him like a rented mule 
 
Oh, what shall we do with the drunken failure? 
Shanghai the bastard to Australia 
If we never see you again 
Buddy that'll be too soon 
Everybody knows that the odds ain't even 
Show me a god that's worth believing 
Better place your bets cause the boat is leaving 
Underneath an eastern moon 
Underneath an eastern moon
