Tiger Lillies - Jackies Bar
Gm
In Jackies bar is where
Gm
the sailors they all drink
Cm
And when next day it opens
Gm
Jackies always stinks
Gm
The sailors they all vomit
Gm
their guts out on her floor
Cm
Next morning with her mop
Gm
she cleans it from the floor
Gm
In Jackies bar the sailors
Gm
the sailors they all fight
Cm
And if there's not a stabbing
Gm
its been a quiet night
Gm
Sometimes sailors bleed to death
Gm
there upon her floor
Cm
Murdered by a pimp
Gm
they didn't pay a whore
Gm
The whores they sit in jackies
Gm
legs on table tops
Cm
Showing of their wares
Gm
to anyone who'll stop
Gm
The whores who work in Jackies
Gm
are the cheapest one's around
Cm
You always get a dose of clap
Gm
when on one you go down
