Lyrics

He's got his finger on the trigger, a bad case of the shakes
A Hollywood apartment and a car with no brakes
After close investigation at the scene of the crime
He's getting down to business while we're killing time
His key is in the alley, his hand's in his jacket
Bow tie and braces,.45 in his pocket
Sam is off the freeway, heading down the boulevard
Double shots of bourbon are lined up in the bar
We're all waiting for Sam the Man
Get him on the line, yeah
Play it again for Sam the Man
One of a kind, yeah
Sam the Man
Meanwhile back at Jake's, the blonde is smoking at the bar
She's got a certain rendezvous, she's not going anywhere
Expensive perfume, six-inch stilettos
Like a kilo of dynamite and a box full of matches
The crowd is thinning out now, getting kind of late
She glances at the door, lights another cigarette
She's slipping out the back door, he pulls into the lane
Sam is picking up the pieces and she's the one that got away
We're all waiting for Sam the Man
Get him on the line, yeah
Play it again for Sam the Man
One of a kind, yeah
We're all waiting for Sam the Man
Get him on the line
Have another drink on Sam the Man
One of a kind, yeah
Sam the Man
Sam the Man
Sam the Man
Just gotta, just gotta whistle for Sam the Man
Get him on the line, yeah
Play it again for Sam the Man
One of a kind, yeah
We're all waiting for Sam the Man
Play it again for Sam the Man
We're all waiting for Sam the Man
