I never knew what a good time was

Till I had a good time with you

When I see the green light you see the red one

The better days to come on through 

Oh you know I can't stop

Oh Lord! You know I won't stop

Cause all that I give is all that I've got 


Heading down in the Avenue District

Caught a glimpse another boy in blue

Red faces painting a picture

Of better days to come on through 


Oh you know I can't stop

Oh Lord! You know I won't stop

Cause all that I give is all that I've got 


You're not the law

And I'm no fool

You're not the law

So don't shoot! 


Shoot me, shoot me, shoot me

Shoot me, shoot me, shoot me

Shoot me, shoot me down 


You know I can't stop

Oh, you know I won't stop

Cause all that I give is all that I've got 


You're not the law

And I'm no fool

You're not the law

So don't shoot! 


Shoot me, shoot me, shoot me

Shoot me, shoot me, shoot me

Shoot me, shoot me down

Cause you're not the law

Down in the Avenue District

You'll see me painting a picture
