Granddaddy was a gambler

Never ever seemed to win
D
Made a bad deal with the wrong man
D
We never saw granddaddy again

Then Grannie ran off with a grifter
D
She didn't even leave a note
D
Them kids had to raise each other
A
And that's about all she wrote
 
[Chorus]
         D
It's why mama ain't gonna quit drinkin
    G                         D
And brother's always gonna be broke

Sister won't ever do nothin
            A
Cause she's too damn high on dope
