Dead or in Jail |
| I’m a little crazy, little out of my head |
| They told me «Only take one,» I took two instead |
| There’s a preacher on the corner yellin' at me |
| I got a pocket full of chitlins and collard greens |
| Now the dogs are barkin' and they got a nose on my trail |
| They say I’ll wind up dead or I’ll end up in jail |
| I took a left down the alley and there’s needles on the ground |
| Broken glass everywhere and the trash has gone sour |
| I think I see a woman but I really can’t tell |
| Prob’ly just another man who disguised himself well |
| Mister do you have a quarter or a dollar that you can spare |
| They say I’ll wind up dead or I’ll end up in jail |
| Well I swear to you, Mom, I swear to you, Dad: |
| Wasn’t nothin' I took, wasn’t nothin' that bad |
| I’m all out of cash and I’m stuck downtown |
| Ain’t nothin' like the feelin' of comin' down |
| I said that I’m sorry, I said that I’m done |
| I’m gonna go back to college, I’m gonna quit drugs |
| Well if you come and get me I will even go to church |
| I started readin' the bible, I swear it every verse |
| And when I get home I’m gonna steal something I can sell |
| They say I’ll wind up dead or I’ll end up in jail |
| Well I swear to you, Mom, I swear to you, Dad: |
| Wasn’t nothin' I took, wasn’t nothin' that bad |
| I’m all out of cash and I’m stuck downtown |
| Ain’t nothin' like the feelin' of comin' down |
| I swear to you, Mom, I swear to you, Dad: |
| Wasn’t nothin' I took, wasn’t nothin' that bad |
| I’m all out of cash and I’m stuck downtown |
| Ain’t nothin' like the feelin' of comin' down |
