[00:30.456]Well, the cop made the showdown
[00:32.706]He was sure he was right
[00:36.201]He had all of the lowdown
[00:40.206]From the bank heist last night
[00:44.446]His best friend was the robber
[00:48.207]And his wife was a thief
[00:51.954]All the children were killers
[00:55.452]They couldn't get no relief
[00:58.701]The bungalow was surrounded
[01:02.196]When a voice loud and clear
[01:05.948]Said, Come on out with your hands up
[01:09.454]Or we'll blow you out of here.
[01:11.950]There was a face in the window
[01:14.946]The TV cameras rolled
[01:18.452]Then they cut to the announcer
[01:22.200]And the story was told.
[01:55.196]The artist looked at the producer
[01:58.947]The producer sat back
[02:02.453]He said, What we have got here
[02:05.956]Is a perfect track
[02:10.706]But we don't have a vocal
[02:13.955]And we don't have a song
[02:17.455]If we could get these things accomplished
[02:21.203]Nothin' else could go wrong.
[02:25.453]So he balanced the ashtray
[02:28.448]As he picked up the phone
[02:32.454]And said, Send me a songwriter
[02:35.702]Who's drifted far from home
[02:37.200]And make sure that he's hungry
[02:40.706]Make sure he's alone
[02:44.700]Send me a cheeseburger
[02:48.207]And a new Rolling Stone.
[02:51.947]Yeah.
[03:28.702]There's still crime in the city,
[03:32.454]Said the cop on the beat,
[03:35.948]I don't know if I can stop it
[03:39.451]I feel like meat on the street
[03:43.702]They paint my car like a target
[03:47.454]I take my orders from fools
[03:50.703]Meanwhile some kid blows my head off
[03:54.455]Well, I play by their rules
[03:58.449]That's why I'm doin' it my way
[04:01.456]I took the law in my hands
[04:05.204]So here I am in the alleyway
[04:09.197]A wad of cash in my pants
[04:10.696]I get paid by a ten year old
[04:15.446]He says he looks up to me
[04:19.451]There's still crime in the city
[04:22.947]But it's good to be free.
[05:07.201]Yeah.
[05:10.197]Now I come from a family
[05:13.703]That has a broken home
[05:17.197]Sometimes I talk to Daddy
[05:21.203]On the telephone
[05:25.454]When he says that he loves me
[05:28.956]I know that he does
[05:32.198]But I wish I could see him
[05:35.450]I wish I knew where he was
[05:39.697]But that's the way all my friends are
[05:42.451]Except maybe one or two
[05:45.945]Wish I could see him this weekend
[05:48.696]Wish I could walk in his shoes
[05:51.948]But now I'm doin' my own thing
[05:55.696]Sometimes I'm good, then I'm bad
[05:58.948]Although my home has been broken
[06:02.954]It's the best home I ever had
[06:37.701]Yeah.
[06:41.195]Well, I keep gettin' younger
[06:44.702]My life's been funny that way
[06:48.454]Before I ever learned to talk
[06:52.701]I forgot what to say
[06:55.954]I sassed back to my mom
[06:59.947]I sassed back to my teacher
[07:03.453]I got thrown out of Bible school
[07:06.948]For sassin' back at the preacher
[07:10.698]Then I grew up to be a fireman
[07:14.203]Put out every fire in town
[07:17.955]Put out anything smokin'
[07:19.706]But when I put the hose down
[07:28.018]The judge sent me to prison
[07:28.263]He gave me life without parole
[07:29.516]Wish I never put the hose down
[07:31.195]Wish I never got old
