Take the Rap |
| You were lookin' at your mother |
| So you went and told your father |
| Daddy don’t say nothin' he’s got plenty in his past |
| Changed your way of thinkin' |
| So you started drinkin' |
| And you got arrested for drivin' blind |
| Take the rap, take the rap |
| It’s gonna break your back, it’s a fact, take the rap |
| It was lined up on the mirror |
| And you just started shavin' |
| Didn’t know what you were smokin' |
| Cigarette came from a friend |
| Judge said you’re delinquent |
| You don’t want to think it |
| So you put your head down, started servin' time |
| Take the rap, take the rap |
| It’s gonna break your back, take the rap |
| Tried to talkbut I got nothin' to prove--why you want to? |
| Tried to run they took away my shoes--why you want to? |
| Why you want me to take the rap? |
| Take the rap, take the rap |
| It’s gonna break your back, take the rap |
| Well your damned if iron bars’ll |
| Keep you rottin' in a prison |
| Hell is lookin' better 'cause you’ll |
| Never get to heaven |
| See your chance and take it |
| Sure you’re gonna make it |
| You’re prepared to take it 'cause you’re never gonna… |
| Take the rap, take the rap |
| It’s gonna break your back, it’s a fact, take the rap |
| (written by Nazareth) |
