Fat City N.O. Testo

I' ve gone through a lot for my freedom Lost a life along the way left home everything I own as I headed to join the charade got caught up with the wild and the madness I may have gone too far I must confess I must confess Got my money hid away in the gas tank Gotta keep it steady no joke no mistake yeah I'll be telling you to hold on Strapped in my four forty Hemmy burning Long live Fat City Got nothin to lose White / blue Down the avenue You're worth everything I know Long live Fat City Out blowing a fuse Set This Town Alight I found my way out the backstreet Glad to be alive A hundred more miles I'll be long gone No more fighting or scrapes to survive Up ahead says rest for riders Headlights maybe red lights beware Look into my rear view mirror they're closer than they do appear Another minute I'll be Far away Another second I'll be shifting gears (Chorus) I've paid a lot for my freedom I never wondered why My memory's clear and reminds me daily It was so close but I passed them by There was a space by the policeman Gun shots all around over my head They'll never arrest me man...yeah right So I look into my rear view mirror They're closer than they will appear Another minute I'll be far away Another second I'll be shifting gears Long Live Fat City New Orleans
