Copper (铜) - Harry Chapin[00:00:00]

If you were looking for a way to make me mad it was a sure fire way you found[00:00:30]

Acting like a half wit fool laying your money around[00:00:35]

Well I came back here to tell you Lou ＇bout what you almost did[00:00:40]

Don＇t you ever put the cash on the counter Lou when I＇m with my kid[00:00:44]

Yeah the kid＇s thirteen he＇s growing Lou two years and he＇ll be bigger than me[00:00:52]

Still he thinks I＇m strong as a blacksmith and straighter than the tall oak tree[00:00:58]

I raised him alone ten years now since his Mama ran away[00:01:04]

And you ain＇t gonna blow his image of me for the stunt like you pulled today[00:01:09]

They took the copper right out of the penny Lou[00:01:17]

They got the pig locked up in the pen[00:01:20]

But you＇re in big trouble with me yes you[00:01:23]

If you ever do that again[00:01:26]

You＇ve got to treat me like a living saint Lou whenever my son＇s around[00:01:34]

Yeah the kid wants to be a policeman just like me[00:01:46]

You know he＇ll be a good one the way I started out to be[00:01:53]

And he just might end up police chief now wouldn＇t that be something to see [00:01:58]

＇Cause then the kid would kick right off of the force all the two-bit grifters like me[00:02:04]

They took the copper right out of the penny Lou[00:02:12]

They got the pig locked up in the pen[00:02:15]

But you＇re in big trouble with me yes you[00:02:18]

If you ever do that again[00:02:21]

You＇ve got to treat me like a living saint Lou whenever my son＇s around[00:02:30]

I guess it was when my old lady left me and she took off with a salesman guy[00:02:48]

I started to see things so differently cut your own slice out of the pie[00:02:54]

Yeah I grew up and it came clear to me all the smart cops on the make[00:02:59]

You get a silver badge not an old tin star when you＇re on the take[00:03:04]

It＇s pimps and whores punk gang wars robberies and homicides[00:03:14]

When you walk the beat with the creeps on the street well there ain＇t no way to hide[00:03:20]

I learned the tricks of the trade from the gutter parade and then I prayed for all I＇m worth[00:03:32]

And when I send my kid to college someday I＇ll have guys like you to thank[00:03:55]

Yeah ten bucks a week on your grocery store means you don＇t have to worry ＇bout crime But hold your money when the kid＇s with me you can pay me double next time[00:04:01]

They took the copper right out of the penny Lou[00:04:15]

They got the pig locked up in the pen[00:04:18]

But you＇re in big trouble with me yes you[00:04:22]

If you ever do that again[00:04:25]

Ten bucks a week protection don＇t mean I can＇t knock you down[00:04:26]

You＇ve got to treat me like a living saint Lou whenever my son＇s around[00:04:33]

Ten bucks a week protection don＇t mean I can＇t knock you down[00:04:42]

You＇ve got to treat me like a living saint Lou whenever my son＇s around[00:04:50]
