machine gun blues

well i'm a gangster 1934

junkies

winos

pimps & whores

and all you men

women and kids

best get out the way

i just left your town

took all your loot

bought a pink carnation and a pinstripe suit

a hopped-up v8 ford and some two-tone shoes

and i'm already gone

i left a pool of blood and sorrow

i've got the machine gun blues

i'll be out of here for the break of dawn

i'll hit the highway

smoke a big cigar

got to stop and bury the cash

and get some more

there's only one thing on my mind

that's making it across that ol' state line

without a hail of avenging bullets

waiting there for me

and i'm already gone

i've left a path of pure destruction

i've got the machine gun blues

i'm already gone

my life will soon be through

i've got the machine gun blues

i'm public enemy #1

i'm sorry for the things that i've done

if indeed we do cross path

it's nothing personal

and i'm already gone

i've left a trail of devastation

i've got the machine gun blues

i'm already gone

my life will soon be through

i've got the machine gun blues
