Didn't have the money round to buy a Morry Thou |
|
Been around and seen a lot to shake me anyhow |
|
Begged and borrowed sometimes, I admit I even stole |
|
The worse crime that I ever did was playing rock 'n roll. |
|
But the money's no good |
|
Just get a grip on yourself |
|
But the money's no good |
|
Just get a grip on yourself |
|
Suffering convictions on a two-way stretch inside |
|
The air in here is pretty thin, I think I'll go outside |
|
Committed for insanity and crimes against the soul |
|
The worst crime that I ever did was play some rock 'n roll. |
|
But the money's no good |
|
Just get a grip on yourself |
|
But the money's no good |
|
Just get a grip on yourself |
|
And you should know |
|
Now I find from week to week the sentence sticking fast |
|
Turn the corner, rub my eyes and hope the world will last |
|
Stranger from another planet welcome to our hole |
|
Just strap on your guitar and we'll play some rock 'n roll |
|
But the money's no good |
|
Just get a grip on yourself |
|
But the money's no good |
|
Just get a grip on yourself |
|
And you should know |
