Great-grandaddy
Dealt in hanged-man's hands
Bloody rope and pissed pants
Seven days at sea, off course by three
He was the only one awake
To see the corposant
A lee-ward storm behind them
Before a gold ice-gilded island
Wrecked at Boston Light
Just past midnight
He was the only one alive
On the coffin boat
Last one alive
On the coffin boat
Doc gave up pulling teeth
Headed out west
Drowning in consumption
And hustling death
But Old Azzy wouldn't come
Through the barrel of a gun
So he cursed with whiskey
On his last breath
That wiry little bastard
Told Big Nose Kate his last words
He raised a death bed toast
Then he gave up the ghost
And he settled with the devil
With his six guns on
He reckoned with the devil
With his six guns on
Huffy Henry's daddy
Was down by the sea
With a six pack of beer
And an old church key
Said he'd swim out on the tide
Taking Henry for the ride
And their eyes would turn to pearls
In the darkness of the deep
Mother's voice was frantic
As she scanned the broad Atlantic
But he chose lead instead
Put a bullet through his head
All he left little Henry
Was the memory
Poor lonely little Henry
With his memories
