Ellis was a bootlegger
Had a place at Shilshole Bay
I'm gonna make it
I'm gonna make it
It's tough when the sun is out and there's a thousand good times had
And the old man has a pretty face as he brings the bad dogs round
And the deeper I go digging so to lay that monster down
The more I see the bodies in the dirt
Ellis was a bootlegger
Had a place at Shilshole Bay
I'm gonna make it
I'm gonna make it
The oak might leak redemption but the barrel's been bled dry
He thinks that good intention gives the wickedness more time
But a mask across the mouth can't hide the hunger in the eyes
No one's left so I cast the final stone
Ellis was a bootlegger
Had a place at Shilshole Bay
I'm gonna make it
I'm gonna make it
