Well, it was bound to happen and one day it did
Scotty came home and it was just us kids
He had a can of squirty cheese and a bottle of wine
If he was lookin' to surprise us, he was doin' fine
I heard him yell at Bob up and down the hall
Then I heard a bottle break against the bedroom wall
That old diesel engine made an eerie sound
When Scotty fired it up and headed into town

Well, the picture in the paper showed the scene real well
Scotty's rig was buried in Robs floating motel
The habor master said he saw it all real clear
He never hit the brakes and he was shifting gears

Robert was a bouncer
Lord, how he wined
Scotty was a good'n
But the angry kind
Scotty hated Rob
Rob loved himself
Rob's in the graveyard
Scotty's in the pen
