	Em
	Edna Millon in a drop dead suit

	B7
Dutch pink on a	downtown train

Two dollar pistol, but the gun won't shoot

	Em
I'm in the corner in the p	ouring rain

16 men on a deadman's chest

	B7
And I've been drinking from a	broken cup

Two pairs of pants and a mohair vest

	Em
I'm full of burbon, I c	an't stand up

	Am	Em
	Hey little bird, fly	away home

	B7	Em
Your	house is on fire, you	r children are alone

	Am	Em
	Hey little bird, fly	away home

	B7	Em
Your	house is on fire, you	r 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
