10 Knots - D-A-D

My kitchen floor started cracking

And out jumped a man

Big, red and horny

I was shaking the devil’s hand

You’ve got hell of a reputation

And that’s the name of my game

And I’ve been digging all night

'Cause I heard your name

Got a mean main reason have no fear

But first we’ll play some poker

And have a warm beer

Let’s play a little poker

And have a nice hot beer

I will smash your windows, burn your mail

I tied 10 knots on the devil’s tail

I can eat a horse, chew a nail

I tied 10 knots on the devil’s tail

D-A-D wouldn’t cross his trail

'Cause I tied 10 knots on the devil’s tail

He’s the toughest man and he can’t fail

But I tied 10 knots on the devil’s tail

I sat down to the table

With the man that I once feared

He was drinking, humming, drinking

And scratching his beard

So we drank for about a fortnight

It seemed like some stupid test

Still I was sitting upright

Doing the things that I do best

But the poor devil looked a mess

I will smash your windows, burn your mail

I tied 10 knots on the devil’s tail

I can eat a horse, chew a nail

I tied 10 knots on the devil’s tail

D-A-D wouldn’t cross his trail

'Cause I tied 10 knots on the devil’s tail

He’s the toughest man and he can’t fail

But I tied 10 knots on the devil’s tail

Though he was red

He seemed kind of pale

Then I tied 10 knots on the devil’s tail

I dumped him in his hole

Heard the echoes of his scream

Hey boyscout from below

Now tell me who’s mean

I will smash your windows, Burn your mail

I tied 10 knots on the devil’s tail

I can beat a horse chew nail

I tied 10 knots on the devil’s tail

I’m so tough I could kick a whale

'Cause I tied 10 knots on the devil’s tail

I’m so mean i would eat a snail

I tied 10 knots on the devil’s tail

I will smash your windows, burn your mail

I tied 10 knots on the devil’s tail

I can eat a horse, chew a nail

I tied 10 knots on the devil’s tail

I’m so rough I spent summer in jail

'cause I tied 10 knots on the devil’s tail
