lirik lagu crime in the city (weld version) – neil young
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
