There was a thick set man with frog eyes   Who was standing at the door   And a little bald man with wing-nut ears   Was waiting in the car      Well, Robert Moore passed the frog-eyed man   As he walked into the bar   And Betty Coltrane she jumped under her table      "What's your pleasure?" asked the barman   He had a face like boiled meat   "There's a girl called Betty Coltrane   That I have come to see"      "But I ain't seen that girl 'round here   For more than a week"   And Betty Coltrane he had hid beneath the table      Well, then in came a sailor with   Mermaids tattooed on his arms   Followed by the man with the wing-nut ears   Who was waitin' in the car      Well, Robert Moore sensed trouble   He'd seen it comin' from afar   And Betty Coltrain she gasped beneath the table      Well, the sailor said, "I'm looking for my wife   They call her Betty Coltrain"   The frog-eyed man said, "That can't be   That's my wife's maiden name"      And the man with the wing-nut ears said   "Hey, I married her back in Spain"   And Betty Coltrain crossed herself beneath the table      Well, Robert Moore stepped up and said   "That woman is my wife"   And he drew a silver pistol   And a wicked bowie knife      And he shot the man with the wing-nut ears   Straight between the eyes   And Betty Coltrain, she moaned under the table      Well, the frog-eyed man jumped at Robert Moore   Who stabbed him in the chest   And as Mister Frog-eyes died he said   "Betty, you're the girl that I loved best"      Then the sailor pulled a razor   Robert blasted it to bits   "And Betty, I know you're under the table"      "Well, have no fear," said Robert Moore   "I do not want to hurt you"   "Never a woman did I love me   Half as much as you      "You're the blessed sun, the meek girl   And you are the sacred moon"   And Betty shot his legs out from under the table      Well, Robert Moore went down heavy   With a crash upon the floor   And over to his trashin' body   Betty Coltrain she did crawl      She put the gun to the back of his head   And pulled the trigger once more   And blew his brains out all over the table      Well, Betty stood up and shook her head   And waved the smoke away   Said, "I'm sorry Mr. Barman   To leave your place this way"      As she emptied out their wallets she said   "I'll collect my severance pay"   Then she winked and threw a dollar on the table
