Nervous Shakedown |
| «Freeze», said the man cruisin' the beat |
| «You get your hands up and spread your feet» |
| «Don't you move an inch», I heard him say |
| «Or you’ll be doin' time until the judgement day» |
| And he said, «Don't tell me no lies, give me alibis |
| 'Cause if you cross my path, you’ll be doin' life» |
| It’s a dirty lie |
| CHORUS: |
| It’s a shakedown |
| And it’s a nervous shakedown |
| A nervous shakedown |
| Another nervous shakedown |
| It’s a shakedown |
| And it’s a nervous shakedown |
| We got a shakedown |
| Another nervous shakedown |
| (It's more like a set-up) |
| «Take a dime», said the man, «you can make one call |
| You got a one-way ticket to the County Hall» |
| Well, the judge looked high and I looked low |
| And when he smiled at me it was a one-man show |
| He said, «Two to five, the jury decides |
| Double parole if you survive» |
| It’s a dirty lie |
| CHORUS |
| Law is gonna get you this time |
| And throw away the key |
| CHORUS |
| Shake you down, shake you down |
| And it’s another shakedown |
