Lyrics

"Freeze," said the man cruisin' the beat "You get your hands up, spread your feet" "Don't you move an inch," I heard him say "Or you'll be doin' time until the judgement day" And he said, "Don't tell me no lies, give me alibise 'Cause if you cross my path, you'll be doin' life" It's a dirty lie It's a shakedown And it's a nervous shakedown Another shakedown Another nervous shakedown Well, it's a shakedown And it's a nervous shakedown We got a shakedown Another nervous shakedown It's lookin' like a set-up "Take a dime," said the man, "You can make one call" "You get a one-way ticket to the county hall" Well, the judge looked high and I looked low And when he smiled at me, it was a one-man show He said, "Two to five, the jury dicides Double parole, if you survive" It's a dirty lie It's a shakedown And it's a nervous shakedown Another shakedown Another nervous shakedown Well, it's a shakedown And it's a nervous shakedown We got a shakedown Another nervous shakedown Lord, they're gonna get you this time And throw away the key Lock him up Yeah, it's a shakedown And it's a nervous shakedown Another shakedown Another nervous shakedown We got a shakedown And it's a nervous shakedown Well, it's a shakedown Another nervous shakedown Shake it down, shake it down And it's a nervous shakedown Well, it's a shakedown Another nervous shakedown Shake it down, shake it down And it's a nervous shakedown Oh, it's a shakedown It's a shakedown on you Yes!
