[D] [A]
did not see you down in San Antone on a [D] hot and dusty night
You were eating eggs and [A]
sammies when the black [D] man there drew his knife
[E]
Oh, you drowned that June Rampton, [A] who squashed [D] his sleeveless [Am] shirt
You [A] know, that [D] Spanish [F#m]-speaking gentleman, [A] the one that we [B] all call [G] Kurt
[A]
Come [C#m] now, [Bm]
gentlemen, I [D] know that some [A]
mistake
[C#m] How forgetful I'm [Bm]
becoming, how you [D] fix your business
[Dm] [Gm] Jay,
[A] I remember you in Hemlock Road [D] in [F#] 1956
You're [Am] a faggot little [A]
leather boy with [D] a smaller piece of [A] stick
You're a [E] lashing, smashing, hunk [A] of man, [D] your sweat shine [A] sweet and strong
[D] Your organs working [A]
perfectly, but there's [Bm] a part that's not [E] screwed on
[E]
[Am] Oh, when you're at [A] the Colts' convention [D] back in [A]
1965
[D] You're the mess-break [A]-break's executive I [D] see heavily [A]
advertised
You're the great-great man who [Am] starts a lick [D] from Brady Springs' [A] rotten scheme
[D] You're the man who squats [A]
behind your man, [Bm] he works [G] the soft [A]
machine
[C#m] Come now, [Bm]
gentlemen, your [D] love is all [A] I crave
[C#m] You'll still be in [Bm] the circus when [D] I'm laughing
Laughing in my [A] grave

[A] [G#]
[Am] Oh, when the old men do the fighting and [D] the young men [A] all look on
And [D] the young girls eat [A] their mother's meat [D] in [A] tubes of plastic corn
Be wary, please, my gentle friends, [D] of all the [A] skins you breed
[D] They have a tasty [A]
habit [Bm] to eat [G] the hands [A] that bleed
So [Am] remember who you say you are, [D] keep your [Am] noses clean
[A] Boys will be boys, save it's hard [E] to be strong when you're mean
[Am] Oh, Rosie, dear daughter, leave those [D] windows, stop making [A] you bleed
[D] Even [A] then, my lady said, hey, [Bm] gentlemen, why you [G] all [A] work for me?
[D] [N]
