<< Nervous Shakedown >>
--- AC DC
"Freeze," said the man cruisin' the beat
"You get your hands up, you spread your feet."
"Don't you move an inch!" I heard him say!
"Or you'll be doin' time till a judgement day."
And he said:
"Don't tell me lies, gimme alibis!"
"'Cause if you cross my path you'll be doin' life!"
It's a dirty lie!
It's a shakedown -- and it's other nervous shakedown
A nervous shakedown -- another nervous shakedown
It's lookin' like a setup!
"Take a dime," said the man, "You can make one call."
You gotta one ticket to the county hall!
Well the judge looked high, and I looked low!
When he smiled at me it was a one-man show!
He said:
Two to five, the jury decides!
No parole, if you survive!
It's a dirty lie!
It's a shakedown -- and it's other nervous shakedown
A nervous shakedown -- another nervous shakedown
Oh, they gonna get you this time... and throw away the key!
