Cops And Robbers - Bo Diddley[00:00:01]
I was driving home on the Boulevard late one night[00:00:05]
When I spied a cat over at the corner[00:00:11]
Thumbing all alone[00:00:14]
Now as I passed him by[00:00:16]
I heard him holler out "Hey "[00:00:18]
I slowed down to see what he said[00:00:22]
He hollered "Oh by any chance you going my way "[00:00:24]
I said "Why sure baby hop in and gimme a cigarette "[00:00:30]
Just then he reached down in his pockets[00:00:34]
And that was the moment that I regret[00:00:38]
He hollered "Reach for the sky "[00:00:40]
I said "But I don't understand you sir "[00:00:45]
"Don't give me no monkey business [00:00:50]
I gotta stopper in my hand "[00:00:53]
Again he says "Uh looky here [00:01:00]
You see this here I got in my hand [00:01:03]
This is a thirty-eight pistol[00:01:05]
Built on a forty-five frame [00:01:08]
Shoots tombstone bullets[00:01:10]
And a ball and chain [00:01:12]
He said "Now I ain't trying to shake you up [00:01:14]
And I but I just want you to know[00:01:17]
If the cops start to crowd me in[00:01:20]
You gonna be the first to go [00:01:23]
So looky here don't even look back [00:01:25]
You Just drive on just like nothing happening[00:01:27]
That's when he told me [00:01:29]
He said "Don't even look back or nothing'"[00:01:30]
He said "when I get to that red light "[00:01:33]
He wanted me to go to my left[00:01:35]
And then jump back to my right[00:01:37]
He says "Now uh I want you drive up in that alley [00:01:40]
N-n-n-n-not that alley that alley over there [00:01:45]
And pull up behind that liquor store [00:01:47]
And keep a sharp look out at all times[00:01:50]
While I sneak in the back door "[00:01:51]
That's when he told me [00:01:53]
He said "keep my foot on that gas [00:01:56]
And always be on gaurd [00:01:58]
'Cause when I come running out of there[00:02:00]
With all that money "[00:02:01]
He wanted me to mash down on it real hard[00:02:02]
He said "Now don't let me come out there[00:02:07]
And find me a double-cross [00:02:10]
Because I murder when the heat's on [00:02:14]
"Reach for the sky "[00:02:20]
I said "But I don't understand you sir "[00:02:24]
"Don't try no monkey business [00:02:29]
I gotta stopper in my hand "[00:02:32]
Wooo-weee I was sitting there just trembling [00:02:38]
A spotlight hit me dead in the face[00:02:43]
And Chicago cop behind me said [00:02:47]
"move over a little bit man[00:02:50]
We gonna take your place "[00:02:51]
Just then this guy come running out of the liquor store[00:02:54]
With all that money in his hand [00:02:56]
He said "Oh there you are "[00:02:57]
He made a mistake in the dark[00:03:01]
And leaped in the police car [00:03:02]
They put the handcuffs on him[00:03:06]
I said "Child your crime must have outgrew him "[00:03:08]
And then they said [00:03:13]
"Yeah We gonna put you so far back in jail this time [00:03:14]
They gonna have to pump air into him "[00:03:17]
