My Crime — текст песни (canned heat)

I went to Denver
Late last fall
I went to do my job
Yeah I didn`t break any law
We worked a hippie place
Like many in our land
They couldn`t bust the place
And so they got the band
`Cause the police in Denver
No, they don`t want none of them long hairs hanging around
And that`s the reason why
They want to tear Canned Heat`s reputation down
You people in Denver
Will know what I mean
Yeah, the things I`m gonna tell ya
Yeah, you`ve all heard and seen
You remember when a cop on the beat
Used to rob and steal
Today they`re gone, but the others get it on
So you know just how I feel
`Cause the police in Denver
Lord, they don`t want none of them long hairs hanging around
And that`s the reason why
They try to tear Canned Heat`s reputation down
Yeah, they try to tear it down, boy
They ain`t gonna do it though
Let me tell you this just one more time
Just one more thing I wanna tell ya
Before I go
It`s a shame the Man in Denver
Has to lie and mistreat people so
Now six months ain`t no sentence
One year ain`t no time
When I hear from one to ten
It worries my troubled mind
`Cause the police in Denver
Lord, don`t want no long hairs around
And that`s the reason why
They try to tear Canned Heat`s reputation down
