|
I've got my plaid rags on |
|
I've got somewhere to be |
|
Got to get that clam and feed my family |
|
Walkin' nice and slow |
|
I've got to get in edge |
|
With a flapper on my arm everyone's dancin |
|
I'm on the lam assigned to get a wiggle on |
|
(chorus) |
|
And no one knows |
|
This hooch can't be exposed |
|
And I'm living just above the law |
|
Oh tommy gun |
|
Won't you set me free |
|
Cause the pool's closin' in |
|
And my kids have gotta eat |
|
Meet me at the speakeasy |
|
Got all my hoods and capers |
|
Hands up behind the chin mill |
|
This gun is smokin' and it's read for a close enounter |
|
Heads up and run (heads up and go) |
|
Man down these cops have got to go |
|
Bullets sprayin' blood is spillin' |
|
And we won't stop 'til their dead. |
|
Say hello to my little friends |
|
And no one knows |
|
This hooch can't be exposed |
|
And I'm living just above the law |
|
Oh tommy gun |
|
Won't you set me free |
|
Cause the pool's closin' in |
|
And my kids have gotta eat |
|
Meet me at the speakeasy |
|
Caught in a good job turnin' |
|
My last words escape the barrel |
|
I rather die tonight |
|
Than drop my gun give up my freedom |
|
Caught in a good job turnin' |
|
(Just drop your gun) |
|
My last words escape the barrel |
|
(Cause there's nowhere that you can run) |
|
I'd rather die tonight |
|
Than drop my gun give up my freedom |
|
Caught in a good job turning' |
|
(Just drop your gun) |
|
My last words escape the barrel |
|
(Cause there's nowhere that you can run) |
|
I'd rather die tonight |
|
Than drop my gun give up my freedom |
|
You can't escape the long arm of the law |
|
And no one knows |
|
This hooch can't be exposed |
|
And I'm living just above the law |
|
Oh tommy gun |
|
Won't you set me free |
|
Cause the pool's closin' in |
|
And my kids have gotta eat |
|
Meet me at the speakeasy |
