letra de the ballad of frank wills - ron turner

[verse 1]
my name is frank wills, make no mistake
i patrol the halls of the watergate
june 17 of ’72
it’s of that day, i’ll tell to you
as i was out making my rounds
i spied a light that had been turned down
the lock had been picked on the office door
and i heard men walkin’ across the floor
i unlocked my gun and stepped inside
said freeze where you are and hold ’em high
i represent the law of the united states
if you want to try and make a break

[chorus]
ehrlichman, why did you run?
haldeman, why did you run?
the g-man and the other ones
when frank pulled out his .44 gun

[verse 2]
officer, you’ve made a mistake
we’re the president’s counsel of the united states
and i said, i’m the president’s son
one false move and i’ll use my gun
took out my cuffs, they flashed and shined
linked their hands all down the line
look lively now and march you outside
i’m taking you for a little ride
down independence avenue
across pennsylvania too
up constitution boulevard
straight into the police yard
each man made his one phone call
the phones are ringing in the white house halls
where it came from, mr. number one
said, cover up everything you done
[verse 3]
when caught red handed one and all
each one was afraid to fall
when pointing out who’s in command
they each pointed to a different man
mitch-ll, i’m told, was the smartest one
when the story broke, away he run
when i get my cuffs around him too
no more lawyering will he do
i know who’s guilty, said john dean
i know who’s dirty and who is clean
everything i know, i’ll gladly tell
just keep me out of that jailhouse cell
too bad about mr. fbi
to help his friends, so he tried
took his orders, did as he’s told
did you see that gray head roll?
had no faces, had no names
felt no guilt, and had no shame
now we know them very well
but i’m looking at seven empty cells
