My daddy was a bank robber
Never hurt no body
He just loved to live that way
And he love to steal your money
Some is rich
And some is poor
And that's the way the world is
But I don't believe in lying back
And saying how bad our luck is.
So we came
To jazz it up
Never loved a shovel
Break your back to earn your pay
And don't forget to grovel.
My daddy was a bank robber
He never hurt no body
He just loved to live that way
And he love to steal your money
The old man spoke up
In a bar
And said I've never been in prison
But a lifetime time on one machine
Is 10 times worse then prison.
Imagine if all
The boys in jail
Could get out now together,
Whadda think they'd wanna say to us
While we were being clever
Hey, strike out boys
To the hills
I can't find me the hole in the wall
I know nothing ever will
Some day I'll meet your rocking chair
Cause that's where you spinning
There no point to want to comb your hair
When is grey and thinning
So we came to jazz it up
Never loved a shovel
Break your back to earn your pay
And don't forget grovel
Daddy was a bank robber
He never hurt nobody
He just loved to live that way
And he loved to steal your money
Hey run rabbit run
To the hills
I can't find me the hole in the wall
I know nothing ever will
