Well the cop made the showdown[00:00:29]

He was sure he was right[00:00:32]

He had all of the lowdown[00:00:36]

From the bank heist last night[00:00:40]

His best friend was the robber[00:00:44]

And his wife was a thief[00:00:48]

All the children were killers[00:00:51]

They couldnt get no relief[00:00:55]

The bungalow was surrounded[00:00:58]

When a voice loud and clear[00:01:02]

Said come on out with your hands up[00:01:05]

Or well blow you out of here [00:01:09]

There was a face in the window[00:01:11]

The tv cameras rolled[00:01:14]

Then they cut to the announcer[00:01:18]

And the story was told [00:01:22]

The artist looked at the producer[00:01:55]

The producer sat back[00:01:59]

He said what we have got here[00:02:02]

Is a perfect track[00:02:06]

But we dont have a vocal[00:02:10]

And we dont have a song[00:02:14]

If we could get these things accomplished[00:02:17]

Nothin else could go wrong [00:02:21]

So he balanced the ashtray[00:02:24]

As he picked up the phone[00:02:28]

And said send me a songwriter[00:02:32]

Whos drifted far from home[00:02:35]

And make sure that hes hungry[00:02:37]

Make sure hes alone[00:02:40]

Send me a cheeseburger[00:02:44]

And a new rolling stone [00:02:48]

Yeah [00:02:50]

Theres still crime in the city [00:03:28]

Said the cop on the beat [00:03:32]

I dont know if I can stop it[00:03:36]

I feel like meat on the street[00:03:39]

They paint my car like a target[00:03:44]

I take my orders from fools[00:03:47]

Meanwhile some kid blows my head off[00:03:51]

Well I play by their rules[00:03:54]

Thats why Im doin it my way[00:03:58]

I took the law in my hands[00:04:01]

So here I am in the alleyway[00:04:05]

A wad of cash in my pants[00:04:08]

I get paid by a ten year old[00:04:10]

He says he looks up to me[00:04:14]

Theres still crime in the city[00:04:17]

But its good to be free [00:04:21]

Yeah [00:04:31]

Now I come from a family[00:05:07]

That has a broken home[00:05:10]

Sometimes I talk to daddy[00:05:13]

On the telephone[00:05:17]

When he says that he loves me[00:05:22]

I know that he does[00:05:25]

But I wish I could see him[00:05:29]

I wish I knew where he was[00:05:32]

But thats the way all my friends are[00:05:36]

Except maybe one or two[00:05:39]

Wish I could see him this weekend[00:05:43]

Wish I could walk in his shoes[00:05:46]

But now Im doin my own thing[00:05:48]

Sometimes Im good then Im bad[00:05:52]

Although my home has been broken[00:05:55]

Its the best home I ever had[00:05:59]

Yeah [00:06:01]

Well I keep gettin younger[00:06:37]

My lifes been funny that way[00:06:41]

Before I ever learned to talk[00:06:44]

I forgot what to say[00:06:48]

I sassed back to my mom[00:06:53]

I sassed back to my teacher[00:06:56]

I got thrown out of Bible school[00:06:59]

For sassin back at the preacher[00:07:04]

Then I grew up to be a fireman[00:07:07]

Put out every fire in town[00:07:10]

Put out anything smokin[00:07:14]

But when I put the hose down[00:07:16]

The judge sent me to prison[00:07:19]

He gave me life without parole[00:07:23]

Wish I never put the hose down[00:07:27]

Wish I never got old[00:07:30]
