Two pair of pants and a mohair vest

Am
Edna Millon in a drop dead suit
E7
Dutch pink in a downtown train
Two dollar pistol, but the gun won't shoot
Am
I'm in the corner in the pouring rain
16 men on a deadman's chest
E7
And I've been drinking from a broken cup
Two pair of pants and a mohair vest
Am
I'm full of burbon; I can't stand up
Dm Am
Hey little bird, fly away home
E7 Am
Your house is on fire; your children are alone
Dm Am
Hey little bird, fly away home
E7 Am
Your house is on fire; your children are alone
Schiffer broke a bottle on Morgans head
And I've been stepping on the devils tail
Across the stripes of a full moons head
Through the bars of a Cuban jail
Bloody fingers on a purple knife
A flamingo drinking from a cocktail glass
I'm on the lawn with someone else's wife
Come admire the view from upon the top of the mast
Chorus
Yellow sheets in a Hong Kong bed
Stayzbo horn and a Singerland slide
To the carnival is what she said
A hundred dollars makes it dark inside
16 men on a deadman's chest
And I've been drinking from a broken cup
Two pair of pants and a mohair vest
I'm full of burbon; I can't stand up

Dutch pink on a downtown train
Two dollar pistol but the gun won't shoot

I'm in the corner in the pouring rain

B7
And I've been drinking from a broken cup
2 pairs of pants and a mohair vest
Em
I'm full of bourbon; I can't stand up.
[Chorus:]
Am Em
Hey little bird, fly away home
B7 Em
Your house is on fire; your children are alone
Hey little bird, fly away home
Your house is on fire; your children are alone
Schiffer broke a bottle on Morgan's head
And I've been stepping on the devil's tail
Across the stripes of full moon's head
Through the bars of a Cuban jail
Bloody fingers on a purple knife
A flamingo drinking from a cocktail glass
I'm on the lawn with someone else's wife
Come admire the view from up on top of the mast
[Chorus]
Yellow sheets in Hong Kong bed
Stazybo horn and a Singerland ride
To the carnival is what she said
A hundred dollars makes it dark inside.
