Lyrics

Walking down the road With a pistol in your waist Johnny you're too bad Walking down the road With a ratchet in your waist Johhny you're too bad You're just robbin' and stabbin' And lootin' and shootin' You're too bad You're just robbin' and stabbin' And lootin' and shootin' You're too bad One of these days When you hear a voice say come Where you gonna run to? One of these days When you hear a voice say come Where you gonna run to? You're gonna run to the rock For rescue, there'll be no rock You're gonna run to the rock For rescue, there'll be no rock Walking down the road With a pistol in your waist Johnny you're too bad Walking down the road With a ratchet in your waist Johhny you're too bad You're just robbin' and stabbin' And lootin' and shootin' You're too bad You're just robbin' and stabbin' And lootin' and shootin' You're too bad One of these days When you hear a voice say come Where you gonna run to? One of these days When you hear a voice say come Where you gonna run to? You're gonna run to the rock For rescue, there'll be no rock You're gonna run to the rock For rescue, there'll be no rock You're gonna run to the rock For rescue, there'll be no rock You say that you're bad, you gwan like you mad You terrorize the people and you make them sad Why, why, you are the Babylon You think that you're tough, you gwan like you're rough Intimidate a man just to call him bluff Why, why, you are the Babylon You're just robbin' and stabbin' And lootin' and shootin' Boy you're too bad You're just robbin' and stabbin' And lootin' and shootin' Boy you're too bad You stop an' you search an' you broke in on de house You turn it upside down like a damn crab louse You set up a man anyway you can You double cross the man according to plan. Why, why you are the Babylon Why, why you are the Babylon You give a man weed, put him on the street You get a three year stretch courtesy of the queen, Why, why, why you so wicked? You come an' dance, you will take chance You better watch your step or you will get lanced Why, why? Because you so wicked You're just robbin' and stabbin' And lootin' and shootin' Boy you're too bad You're just robbin' and stabbin' And lootin' and shootin' Boy you're too bad In the daytime you smile In the night time you snarl You get equipment Forget in a brawl You let loose your dogs to set upon the wogs You come in disguise but everyone get wise Why, why you are the Babylon You're gonna run You're gonna run But you cannot hide no, no. Oh no, but you cannot hide But you cannot hide no, no. You're gonna run You're gonna run But you cannot hide no, no.
