Bankrobber lyrics

My Daddy was a bankrobber

Never hurt nobody

He just loved to live that way

And he loved to steal your money

So we came to jazz it up

I never loved that shovel

Break your back to earn your pay

Don't forget to grovel

Some is rich and some is poor

Thats the way they say the world is

Don't believe in lying back

Saying how bad my life is

Daddy was a bankrobber

Never hurt nobody

He just loved to live that way

He loved to steal your money

The old man spoke up in a bar

Said I've never been to prison

A lifetime serving one machine

Ten times worse than prison

Imagine if all the boys in jail

Get out now together

What do you think they want to say to us

While we was being clever

Someday you'll meet your rockin chair

Cause that's where we're spinnin

There's no point to want to comb your hair

When its grey and thinin

Get away, get away

Get away, get away

Get away, get away

Get away

Strike out boy

For the hills

I can't find that hole in the wall

I know that they never will

Daddy was a bankrobber

Never hurt nobody

He just loved to live that way

He loved to steal your money
