Rackateers Blues |
If you’ve got over fifteen grand’s, better split it ninety-nine different ways |
If you’ve got over fifteen grand’s, you better split it ninety-nine different |
ways |
'Cause the racketeer |
Has got no certain place to dig your grale |
When they demand your money, you’ve got to give it up with a smile |
When they demand your money, you’ve got to give it up with a smile |
And if you refuse, they’ll read about you in a short little while |
When the gang is out to get you, it don’t do no good to run |
When the gang is out to get you, it don’t do no good to run |
It’s true you can dodge a log but you can’t dodge them slugs out the machine gun |
You slave hard for your money, just to give it to some other one |
You work hard for your money, just to give it to some other one |
And if you refuse, the answer will be from a racketeer’s gun |
When the gang is out to get you, they’ll follow you everywhere |
When the gang is out to get you, they’ll follow you everywhere |
You can even move towards hell … |
Find you there |
