Raised on Robbery - The Sheepdogs[00:00:00]
Written by:Joni Mitchell[00:00:00]
He was sitting in the lounge of the empire hotel[00:00:00]
He was drinking for diversion[00:00:03]
He was thinking for himself[00:00:04]
A little money riding on the maple leafs[00:00:06]
Along comes a lady in lacy sleeves[00:00:10]
She says let me sit down[00:00:13]
You know drinkin' alone's a shame[00:00:14]
It's a shame it's a crying shame[00:00:17]
Look at those jokers[00:00:20]
Glued to that damn hockey game[00:00:21]
Hey honey you've got lots of cash[00:00:27]
Bring us round a bottle[00:00:30]
We'll have some laughs[00:00:31]
Gin's what I'm drinking[00:00:33]
I was raised on robbery[00:00:34]
I'm a pretty good cook[00:00:52]
I'm sitting on my groceries[00:00:54]
Come up to my kitchen[00:00:58]
I'll show you my best recipe[00:01:00]
I try and I try but I can't save a cent[00:01:05]
I'm up after midnight[00:01:08]
Trying to make my rent[00:01:10]
I'm rough but I'm pleasin'[00:01:12]
I was raised on robbery[00:01:13]
We had a little money once[00:01:31]
They were pushing through a four lane highway[00:01:33]
Government gave us three thousand dollars[00:01:37]
You should've seen it fly away[00:01:39]
First he bought a '57 Biscayne[00:01:43]
He put it in the ditch[00:01:46]
He drunk up all the rest[00:01:47]
That son of a bitch[00:01:49]
His blood's bad whiskey[00:01:50]
I was raised on robbery[00:01:52]
You know you ain't bad looking[00:02:10]
I like the way you hold your drinks[00:02:12]
Come home with me honey[00:02:16]
I ain't asking for no full length mink[00:02:18]
Hey where you going[00:02:24]
Don't go yet[00:02:25]
Your glass ain't empty and we just met[00:02:27]
You're mean when you're loaded[00:02:30]
I was raised on robbery[00:02:31]
