Savatage - Sammy And Tex lyrics
Your rating:
Hey D.T. what you been up to It's been a real long time And your bill's past due Stop right there Don't you look away 'Cause you've had your fun Now it's time to pay Now you know that I've been waiting And I'm really very patient But you've really pushed me way too far 'Cause you owe me thirty thousand And with interest it's been growing While you've hidden in these bars Now I would have said just duck it But then money by the bucket I hear you're raking in So please forgive my diction And prepare for crucifixion While I write your next of kin So please don't turn away You borrowed now you pay Seems your mind's Gone a bit off track Time to readjust 'Cause Sammy's back So Sammy started dealing and D.T. started reeling And they tumbled to the floor The furniture was flying And D.T. thought of dying When Tex walked through the door Now Tex he wasn't waiting And without hesitating Grabbed Sammy by the throat And Sammy started shakin' A frightened slab of bacon Hanging like a coat Seemed things were going right Till Sammy pulled a knife sayin' "If you want to cut the cards Sammy's gonna up the odds" Then everything was quiet A street after the riot And the silence hung like death And Tex he wasn't breathing His body lay there bleeding A knife inside his chest When D.T. saw his friend there He quickly lost his terror As something tore inside His face was clenched in hatred As his mind formulated How this pimp would die Sammy saw it in his eyes And thought retreat would be wise Saying "Seems I've stayed A bit too long So I'll take my things And Sammy's gone
