Lyrics

Sun's comin' up and news starts spreadin' around Yesterday's gone, and you man I had to gun down, down, down Hey mister "know it all" - what the hell you gonna do? When a jerk like that takes a swing at you You'll run for cover, you'll spit him in the eye You'll pull the trigger! - don't tell me lies... My mother said straight way's build on pride, yeah If wishes were horses then beggars would be ride, and ride, ride, ride Hey mister "know it all" - what the hell you gonna do? When a jerk like that takes a swing at you You'll call it even, you'll desperately weep You'll pull the trigger! - and nail that creep... Ten to life - now the crime is done So long - I'm too far gone... Ten to life - from a judge so fine Best man - that money can buy... Took a shot but I've failed Now I'm dying in jail And it cuts like a knife I'm gettin' Ten To Life... Just like a dream they busted me and put me away Over the hills and down to the slammer to stay Hey mister "know it all" - what the hell you gonna do? When a jerk like that takes a swing at you You'll turn another cheek, take livin' in disgrace You'll pull the trigger - get off of my face...
