《Cops and Robbers》歌词

[00:00:00] Cops and Robbers - Bo Diddley (波迪·德利)

[00:00:05] As I was driving home along the boulevard late one night

[00:00:11] I saw a guy in the corner bumming all alone

[00:00:16] As I passed him by I heard him holler out: "Hey "

[00:00:22] I slowed down to see what he said he said:

[00:00:26] "Eh By any chance are you goin' my way "

[00:00:30] I said: "sure baby hop on in and give me a cigarette"

[00:00:35] Then he reached out in his pocket

[00:00:38] And that was the moment I regret

[00:00:41] Well now boy "Reach for the sky "

[00:00:46] Because I don't understand sir

[00:00:51] "Don't you try no monkey business

[00:00:54] I got a stopper in my hand "

[00:01:01] An' then he said: "You see this rock I got in my hand

[00:01:06] This is a 38 pistol built on a 45 frame

[00:01:11] It shoots tombstone bullets an' a ball and chain "

[00:01:15] He said: "I ain't tryin' to shake you up

[00:01:18] But I just want you to know

[00:01:21] If the cops start to crowding me in

[00:01:24] You're gonna be the first to go

[00:01:26] You just drive on just like there ain't nothin' happenin'"

[00:01:28] That's what he told me he wouldn't

[00:01:31] Even let me look back at nothin'

[00:01:34] And he said: "when you get to that red light

[00:01:37] I want you to jump back your left

[00:01:39] And then switch back your right"

[00:01:42] He said: "Now I want you to park up in that alley

[00:01:46] Ah ah not that alley that one over there

[00:01:49] And cool it behind that liquor store

[00:01:51] And keep a sharp lookout at all times

[00:01:53] While I sneak in that back door"

[00:01:55] That's what he told me

[00:01:58] He said:"keep your foot on the gas

[00:02:00] And always be on guard

[00:02:02] 'Cos when I come runnin' out the liquor store with all that money

[00:02:04] He wanted me to mash on it real hard

[00:02:09] He said: "Now don't you come

[00:02:11] Out of there an' try me a double-crossed

[00:02:17] Because it's murder when the heats on "

[00:02:22] "Reach for the sky "

[00:02:26] Yeah but I don't understand sir

[00:02:31] "Don't you try no monkey business

[00:02:34] I got a stopper in my hand "

[00:02:41] Ooeee while I was sittin' there just tremblin'

[00:02:45] A spotlight hit me dead in the face

[00:02:50] An' a cop pulled up behind me and said:

[00:02:52] "Move up a bit man for we want to take your place "

[00:02:56] An' then this guy come runnin' out of

[00:02:59] The store with the money in his hand

[00:03:01] And said "Oh there you are "

[00:03:03] He made a mistake in the dark and ran

[00:03:05] And leaped in the police car

[00:03:08] When they put the handcuffs on him

[00:03:10] I said: "Child your crime must have outgrew him "

[00:03:16] An' then they said: "Yeh we gonna put him

[00:03:18] So far back in jail this time

[00:03:20] That they're gonna have to pump air into him "
