I was walking on down the alley |
|
When a face I've never seen |
|
Came so from deep in the darkness |
|
And his mouth came on real mean |
|
And I saw that he'd been liquored |
|
And he staggered up to -- you know -- he staggered up to his feet |
|
And he said, "Boy, you'd better move real slow |
|
And gimme your money please." |
|
He said, "Gimme your money please." |
|
Wasn't that strange |
|
Wasn't that strange indeed |
|
Wasn't that strange |
|
Wasn't that strange indeed |
|
He said, "Gimme your money please." |
|
He said, "Gimme your money please." |
|
Being born and raised in New York |
|
There ain't nothing you won't see |
|
'Cause the streets are filled with bad goings-on |
|
And you know that's no place to be |
|
But my car broke down in the evening |
|
You know it just stopped stone cold |
|
Stopped stone cold in the street |
|
And a dirty mean man with sharp glass eyes |
|
He said, "Gimme your money please." |
|
He said, "Gimme your money please." |
|
Wasn't that strange |
|
Wasn't that strange indeed |
|
Wasn't that strange |
|
Wasn't that strange indeed |
|
He said, "Gimme your money please." |
|
He said, "Gimme your money please." |

And a dirty mean man with a shotgun in his hand |
|
He said, "Gimme your money please." |

(Awww!) |
