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 hist'ry
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
