Lyrics:

  • Twinkle, twinkle, twinkle, little star
  • Up comes Brady in a 'lectric car
  • Got a mean look all 'round his eye
  • Gonna shoot somebody jus' to see them die
  • Duncan, Duncan was tending the bar
  • In walked Brady with a shining star
  • And Brady says, "Duncan you are under arrest"
  • And Duncan shot a hole in Brady's breast
  • Brady, Brady carried a .45,
  • Said it would shoot half a mile
  • Duncan had a .44
  • That what laid Mr. Brady so low
  • Brady fell down on the barroom floor,
  • "Please Mr. Duncan don' shoot me no more"
  • Women all cryin', ain't it a shame,
  • Shot King Brady, goin' shoot him again
  • "Brady, Brady, Brady, you know you done wrong
  • Walkin' in the room when the game was goin' on
  • Knockin' down windows, breakin' down the door
  • Now you lyin' dead on the grocery [barroom] floor
  • Women all heard that Brady was dead,
  • Goes back home and they dresses in red
  • Come a sniffin' and a sighin' down the street,
  • In their big mother hubbards and their stockin' feet
  • 'Cause he been on the job too long
