letra de crime in the city (weld version) - neil young

Loading...

well, the cop made the showdown –
he was sure he was right –
he had all of the lowdown –
from the bank heist last night –

his best friend was the robber –
and his wife was a thief –
all the children were k!llers –
they couldn’t get no relief –
the bungalow was surrounded –
when a voice loud and clear –
said, “come on out with your hands up” –
or we’ll blow you out of here –

there was a face in the window –
the tv cameras rolled –
then they cut to the announcer –
and the story was told –

[bridge]

there’s still crime in the city –
said the cop on the beat –
i don’t know if i can stop it –
i feel like meat on the street –
they paint my car like a target –
i take my orders from fools –
meanwhile some punk blows my head off –
well, i play by their rules –
that’s why i’m doing it my way –
i took the law in my own hands –
here i am in the alleyway –

a wad of cash in my pants i get paid by a ten year old
he says he looks up to me –
there’s still crime in the city –
but it’s good to be free –
freeeeeedooooooom

[verse 4]
well i come from a family –
it has a broken home –
sometimes i talk to daddy –
on the telephone –

when he says that he loves me –
i know that he does –
but i wish it i could see him –
i wish i knew where he was –
that’s the way all my friends are
except maybe one or two –
wish i could see him this weekend –
wish i could walk in his shoes –

but now i’m doing my own thing –
sometimes i’m good, then i’m baaad –
although my home has been broken –
it’s the best home i ever had –

[bridge]

[verse 5]
well, i keep getting younger –
my life’s been funny that way –
before i ever learned to talk –
i forgot what to say –

i sassed back to my moma –
i sassed back to my teacher –
i got thrown out of bible school –
for giving a finger to the preacher –

and i grew up to be a fireman –
put out every fire in town –
put out anything smoking –
but when i put the hose down –
the judge sent me to prison –
he gave me life without parole –
wish i never put the hose down –
wish i never got old –
wish i never got old –
ooooooold
