Smuggler's Blues - The Alabama Blues Project[00:00:00]

There's trouble on the streets tonight,[00:00:15]

I can feel it in my bones.[00:00:17]

I had a premonition,[00:00:19]

That he should not go alone.[00:00:20]

I knew the gun was loaded,[00:00:23]

But I didn't think he'd kill.[00:00:25]

Everything exploded,[00:00:26]

And the blood began to spill.[00:00:28]

So baby, here's your ticket,[00:00:30]

Put the suitcase in your hand.[00:00:32]

Here's a little money now,[00:00:34]

Do it just the way we planned.[00:00:36]

You be cool for twenty hours[00:00:38]

And I'll pay you twenty grand.[00:00:40]

I'm sorry it went down like this,[00:00:46]

And someone had to lose,[00:00:48]

It's the nature of the business,[00:00:49]

It's the smuggler's blues.[00:00:51]

Smuggler's blues[00:00:57]

The sailors and pilots,[00:01:01]

The soldiers and the law,[00:01:03]

The pay offs and the rip offs,[00:01:05]

And the things nobody saw.[00:01:07]

No matter if it's heroin, coc*ine, or hash,[00:01:09]

You've got to carry weapons[00:01:13]

'Cause you always carry cash.[00:01:14]

There's lots of shady characters,[00:01:16]

Lots of dirty deals.[00:01:18]

Ev'ry name's an alias[00:01:20]

In case somebody squeals.[00:01:22]

It's the lure of easy money,[00:01:24]

It's gotta very strong appeal.[00:01:26]

Perhaps you'd understand it better[00:01:32]

Standin' in my shoes,[00:01:34]

It's the ultimate enticement,[00:01:36]

It's the smuggler's blues,[00:01:38]

Smuggler's blues.[00:01:43]

See it in the headlines,[00:02:26]

You hear it ev'ry day.[00:02:27]

They say they're gonna stop it,[00:02:29]

But it doesn't go away.[00:02:31]

They move it through miami, sell it in l.a.,[00:02:33]

They hide it up in telluride,[00:02:37]

I mean it's here to stay.[00:02:39]

It's propping up the governments in columbia and peru,[00:02:41]

You ask any d.e.a. man,[00:02:45]

He'll say there's nothin' we can do,[00:02:47]

From the office of the president,[00:02:49]

Right down to me and you, me and you.[00:02:50]

It's a losing proposition,[00:02:57]

But one you can't refuse.[00:02:58]

It's the politics of contraband,[00:03:00]

It's the smuggler's blues,[00:03:02]

Smuggler's blues.[00:03:07]
