The days were many The nights were too McClusky brothers And me and you Done bet our lives On a pile of dust Hot red desert From dawn to dusk Dug for our future Which was comin soon Washed down our histry In that damn saloon Dirty shame dirty shame Drank our gold And drowned our pain Dirty shame, Dirty Shame Saloon We broke our backs To strike that seam
Cursed the heat And laid those beams Hardship by day Pleasure by night Hotel women Gamble, fight Smelt the treasure Under sun and moon And lost it all In that damn saloon Dirty shame dirty shame Drank our gold And drowned our pain Dirty shame, Dirty Shame Saloon Dirty shame dirty shame Drank our gold And drowned our pain Dirty shame, Dirty Shame Saloon
