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) |
