Well, I killed my dad in a con gone bad

Nearly drank myself to death

But when he died he said Lou had the cake

So I caught a bus headin' west





I saw the numbers running through a small cafe

And I knew I'd find my Uncle Lou

That's when Ed stepped up

He said pick a card

Shape the con before it shapes you





Who sent ya'?

Sam fuckin' Peckinpah

Yeah who sent ya'?





Who sent ya'?

Who sent ya'?

Sam fuckin' Peckinpah

Yeah who sent ya'?





Now I met my uncle for the very first time

And he sent me on a con with Ed

So we came callin' on his girl Dianne

A blonde grifter dressed in red

I guess pigeon dropping was the name of the game

And I had to pay my dues

Well, fun time, family fun was the plan

Shape the con before it shapes you





Who sent ya'?

Sam fuckin' Peckinpah

Yeah who sent ya'?





Who sent ya' baby girl?

Sam fuckin' Peckinpah

Yeah who sent ya'?





Sam Peckinpah tried to choke Eddie out

But he cut him from ear to ear

Then he grabbed old Lou and screamed
