Bankrobber
Lyrics
One, two, one, two
One, two!
Well my daddy was a bankrobber
But he never hurt nobody
Why he just loved to live that way
And he loved to steal your money
Well some are rich, and some are poor
And that's the way the world is
But I don't believe in laying back
And sayin' how bad your luck is
So we came to jazz it up
We never learned to shovel
Break your back to earn our pay
And don't forget to grovel
When the old man spoke up in a bar
He said I never been in prison
A lifetime serving one machine
Is ten times worse than prison
Well imagine if all the boys in jail
Could get out now together
Whadda you think they'd want to say to us?
While we're here being clever
Someday you'll meet your rocking chair
Cus that's where we're spinning
There's no point man in combing your hair
When it's all grey and thinning
Well my daddy was a bankrobber
But he never hurt nobody
Why he just loved to live that way
And he loved to steal your money
Well he loved to steal your money
Well he loved to steal your money
