Bankrobber — текст песни (Clash, The)

(Strummer/Jones)

MY DADDY WAS A BANKROBBER
BUT HE NEVER HURT NOBODY
HE JUST LOVED TO LIVE THAT WAY
AND HE LOVED TO STEAL YOUR MONEY

SOME IS RICH, AND SOME IS POOR
THAT`S THE WAY THE WORLD IS
BUT I DON`T BELIEVE IN LYING BACK
SAYlN` HOW BAD YOUR LUCK IS

SO WE CAME TO JAZZ IT UP
WE NEVER LOVED A SHOVEL
BREAK YOUR BACK TO EARN YOUR PAY
AN` DON`T FORGET TO GROVEL

THE OLD MAN SPOKE UP IN A BAR
SAID I NEVER BEEN IN PRISON
A LIFETIME SERVING ONE MACHINE
IS TEN TIMES WORSE THAN PRISON

IMAGINE IF ALL THE BOYS IN JAIL
COULD GET OUT NOW TOGETHER
WHADDA YOU THINK THEY`D WANT TO SAY TO US?
WHILE WE WAS BEING CLEVER

SOMEDAY YOU`LL MEET YOUR ROCKING CHAIR
COS THAT`S WHERE WE`RE SPINNING
THERE`S NO POINT TO WANNA COMB YOUR HAIR
WHEN IT`S GREY AND THINNING

RUN RABBIT RUN
STRIKE OUT BOYS, FOR THE HILLS
I CAN FIND THAT HOLE IN THE WALL
AND I KNOW THAT THEY NEVER WILL
