Gangster Blues

Oh I, I know it's only time
Only time until
You pull the job that kills

You say you' ll never do it again
But you know you will
Call your boys who know the drill
It pains me to see how you get you thrill

Now time will prove
Now you have to choose
If life's the game you lose
By taking one last chance and falling
To the gangster blues

I, I heard the people say
You're in high demand
Well, badness will follow badman

You know you only do it son
'Cause you now you can
Another drive another gram
Well, think of your family, understand

Now time will prove
Now you have to choose
If life's the game you lose
By taking one last chance and falling

You know it's true
Life can be so cruel
Time won't wait for you
And I don't want my friend a victim
Of the gangster blues
(Gangster blues, gangster blues)

Bad man and bad John
From all about, rock it out
Me draw for me spliff not
The cocaine, me left it out

Babylon ah watch m'run
Big tings from long time
Time, time 'ey yeah
Burning, hustling, smuggling, planting
Ah, bare weed me deal wid

And me nah touch
De hard ting
Soon done ya chattin' when
De war start fi happen
Right now

Now time will prove
Now you have to choose
If life's the game you lose
By taking one last chance and falling
To the gangster blues
