Lonnie Johnson - Racketeers Blues lyrics
Your rating:
If you got over fifteen grand : better split it ninety?nine different ways Because the racketeers : got no certain place to dig your grave When they demand your money : you got to give it up with a smile And if you refuse : they'll read about you in a short little while When the gang is out to get you : it don't do no good to run It's true you can dodge the law : but you can't dodge them slugs out the machine gun You [slave, work] hard for your money : just to give it to some other one And if you refuse : the answer will be from a racketeer's gun When the gang is out to get you : they'll follow you everywhere You can even move to West Hell : doggone if they don't find you there
