Well Grandaddy ran the whiskey, back in '29 A time far from now, the only way to stay alive Bootlegged corn riders, brought fire to our door But the Madden gang were dangerous, they wanted something more Owney Madden from England, got nine years down As soon as released, he headed to Northern ground Canadian whiskey, salt water and rust He brought it all down, past the border that month And its always the worst times, that bring out the best Like taking a life to put others to rest And I'll shake in the morning, with my wavering eye He's gone up to Blackwood, he'll be there all night Well Grandaddy lived an honest life, 'till prohibition times Where he earned the name Mad Dog, I never knew why His still up in Blackwood, was known all around Especially by Madden, who came to tear it all down And its always the worst times, that bring out the best Like taking a life to put others to rest And I'll shake in the morning, with my wavering eye He's gone up to Blackwood, he'll be there all night He's gone up to Blackwood, he's gone there to die
