Al Capone
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.
Why did you let him get away?
After the scary, what you say?
Shooting me bullets, cold as ice
Standing my face then pulled the knife
She’s heard just fired down, he’s in
No one had job to get revenge
Why did you let him get away?
Why did you let him get her?
Too bad, forget it
‘Cause there’s Al Capone who’s in it
So sad, regret it
Cause the madman’s out tonight
Should have told her
Nobody ever showed her about us
I don’t wanna sleepin’
Nobody should be grieving this way
Should have told her
Nobody ever showed her about us
I don’t wanna sleepin’
Nobody should be grieving this way
Why did you let him get away?
After the scary, what you say?
Shooting me bullets, cold as ice
Standing my face then put it back
She’s heard just fired down, he’s in
No one had job to get revenge
Why did you let him get away?
Why did you let him get her?
Too bad, forget it
‘Cause there’s Al Capone who’s in it
So sad, regret it
And I told her out tonight
Should have told her
Nobody ever showed her about us
I don’t wanna sleepin’
Nobody should be grieving this way
Should have told her
Nobody ever showed her about us
I don’t wanna sleepin’
Nobody should be grieving this way
Too bad, forget it
‘Cause there’s Al Capone, who’s in it
So sad, regret it
‘Cause the man is out tonight
Should have told her
Nobody ever showed her about us
I don’t wanna sleepin’
Nobody should be grieving this way
Should have told her
Nobody ever showed her about us
I don’t wanna sleepin’
Nobody should be grieving this way
Why did you let him get away?
After the scary, what you say?
Shooting me bullets, cold as ice
Standing my face then put it back
She’s heard just fired down, he’s in
No one had job to get revenge
Why did you let him get away?
How could you let him get away?
