Lyrics

“Let’s say hypothetically 
That you and I could make a couple G’s 
In just one evening 
Off the Sugarloaf Key”
“The work is pretty easy
You get paid to take the risk
I know a guy who knows a guy 
Who needs to make a skiff”
He said it that informally
Just two old rummies seated at the bar
And talking scars 
And scores on the sea
The only thing between us
Was the simple fact we’d know 
That if the Coast Guard showed up
Each man was on his own
‘Cause when the handcuffs go on
All you really feel is the metal grind against your bones
So me and this guy walked down to the pier to have a beer. 
Then he starts acting nervous 
And the blue lights appear
The next thing I was tasting 
Was a two by six pressure treated decking board 
And my waists and my wrists had become one 
When the handcuffs go on 
All you really feel is the metal grind against your bones. 
There’s a moment when you think that you can get away
Trust me brother the game is already played
The bruises ain’t really worth it anyway
If I had the option 
I’d be softening some chica de ensuena
On a beach in Cardenas
But I’m stuck up here in holding
At the Dade Correctional
Just a son of the system where each
Morning on dawn
The handcuffs go on 
And all you really feel is the metal grind against your bones
