Bankrobber

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

And thats the way the world is

And I don't believe in lying back

And saying how bad your life is

So we came to jaz it up

Never loved a shovel

Break your back earn your pay

And don't forget to grovel

Daddy was a bankrobber

But he never hurt nobody

He just loved to live that way

And he loved to take your money (What law?)

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

What do you think they want to say to us

While we were 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 (Hey)

Hey

Daddy was a bankrobber

But he never hurt nobody

He just loved to live that way

And he loved to steal your money

So we came to jaz it up

We never loved a shovel

Break your back earn your pay

And don't forget to grovel (Hey)

Get away, get away

Get away, get away

Get away, get away

Get away

Daddy was a bankrobber

But he never hurt nobody

He just loved to live that way

And he loved to steal your money

Run, Laddy, run

Strike out boy

For the hills

I can't find that hole in the wall

I know that they never will

My Daddy was a bankrobber

But he never hurt nobody

He just loved to live that way

And he loved to steal your money
