Lyrics
Shakedown
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It's a shakedown
Loss of control
It's a shakedown
That's rock'n'roll
It's a shakedown
Long stories told
25 years of punk rock'n'roll
I've loaded my amp into a vetrens hall
I've sang my songs in a Kansas corn field
I've played squats in old East Berlin
Drank wine in Naple beer in Michigan
You can do it for money but you'll be outta luck
Some do it for fame that will leave the all alone
Or you can do it cause you just can't stop
The addiction to this life for those of us who know
