lirik lagu neil young - crime in the city (weld version)
well, the cop made the showdown ~
he was sure he was right ~
he had all of the lowdown ~
from the bank heist last night ~
his best friend was the robber ~
and his wife was a thief ~
all the children were k!llers ~
they couldn’t get no relief ~
the bungalow was surrounded ~
when a voice loud and clear ~
said, “come on out with your hands up” ~
or we’ll blow you out of here ~
there was a face in the window ~
the tv cameras rolled ~
then they cut to the announcer ~
and the story was told ~
[bridge]
there’s still crime in the city ~
said the cop on the beat ~
i don’t know if i can stop it ~
i feel like meat on the street ~
they paint my car like a target ~
i take my orders from fools ~
meanwhile some punk blows my head off ~
well, i play by their rules ~
that’s why i’m doing it my way ~
i took the law in my own hands ~
here i am in the alleyway ~
a wad of cash in my pants i get paid by a ten year old
he says he looks up to me ~
there’s still crime in the city ~
but it’s good to be free ~
freeeeeedooooooom

[verse 4]
well i come from a family ~
it has a broken home ~
sometimes i talk to daddy ~
on the telephone ~
when he says that he loves me ~
i know that he does ~
but i wish it i could see him ~
i wish i knew where he was ~
that’s the way all my friends are
except maybe one or two ~
wish i could see him this weekend ~
wish i could walk in his shoes ~
but now i’m doing my own thing ~
sometimes i’m good, then i’m baaad ~
although my home has been broken ~
it’s the best home i ever had ~
[bridge]
[verse 5]
well, i keep getting younger ~
my life’s been funny that way ~
before i ever learned to talk ~
i forgot what to say ~
i sassed back to my moma ~
i sassed back to my teacher ~
i got thrown out of bible school ~
for giving a finger to the preacher ~
and i grew up to be a fireman ~
put out every fire in town ~
put out anything smoking ~
but when i put the hose down ~
the judge sent me to prison ~
he gave me life without parole ~
wish i never put the hose down ~
wish i never got old ~
wish i never got old ~
ooooooold
