Testo Cops And Robbers
As I was driving home along the boulevard late one nightI saw a guy in the corner, bumming all aloneAs I passed him by, I heard him holler out: "Hey!"I slowed down to see what he said, he said:"Eh! By any chance, are you goin' my way?"I said: "sure baby, hop on in and give me a cigarette"Then he reached out in his pocketAnd that was the moment I regretWell now boy "Reach for the sky!"Because I don't understand, sir"Don't you try no monkey business, I got a stopper in my hand!"An' then he said: "You see this rock I got in my hand?This is a 38 pistol built on a 45 frameIt shoots tombstone bullets an' a ball and chain!"He said: "I ain't tryin' to shake you up, but I just want you to knowIf the cops start to crowding me inYou're gonna be the first to go!You just drive on just like there ain't nothin' happenin'"That's what he told me, he wouldn't even let me look back at nothin'And he said: "when you get to that red lightI want you to jump back your left and then switch back your right"He said: "Now, I want you to park up in that alleyAh ah, not that alley, that one over thereAnd cool it behind that liquor storeAnd keep a sharp lookout at all timesWhile I sneak in that back door"That's what he told meHe said:"keep your foot on the gasAnd always be on guard'cos when I come runnin' out the liquor store with all that moneyHe wanted me to mash on it real hardHe said: "Now don't you come out of there an' try me a double-crossedBecause it's murder when the heats on!"Well now boy "Reach for the sky!"Yeah but I don't understand, sir"Don't you try no monkey business, I got a stopper in my hand!"Ooeee, while I was sittin' there just tremblin'A spotlight hit me dead in the faceAn' a cop pulled up behind me and said:"Move up a bit man, for we want to take your place!"An' then this guy come runnin' out of the store with the money in his handAnd said "Oh there you are!"He made a mistake in the dark and ran and leaped in the police car!When they put the handcuffs on himI said: "Child, your crime must have outgrew him!"An' then they said: "Yeh, we gonna put him so far back in jail this timeThat they're gonna have to pump air into him!"Well now boy "reach for the sky"Yeah but I said, I don't understand sirDon't you try no monkey business, I got a stopper in my hand
