As the guitar gently weeps, my Riviera streaks Into the night like a bat outta hell All the wishes in the well couldn't keep me from my cell I'm feeling paranoid, I couldn't trust my clientele The Marlboro blows, I blow the smoke through my nose You reep what you sow and Lord I know I took route 87, upstate New York I'm feeling like I sinned so I must be getting soft Got an angel on my right, the devil on my left Conscious being on my brain for every single death I'm seeing ghosts, I'm being haunted like the tell tale heart I'm on the road alone, headlights in the dark I never ever ratted, kept my mouth shut Bad karma all around and I'm running out of luck Next soldier wants my job, better watch my back Or I'll be the one in the trunk getting whacked

Before there was a lotto his people took your numbers Odds on the game, the point spreads over, unders Went to private school educated by nuns But like a pagan, lost his faith through the Gods of the guns A heist like the Briks, he iced ladies like rinks From pocket books to the minks, thought they'd never see the clink Slapped on the wrist, his case was dismissed You see money talks, yo, it pays if you're rich pops Grease the bulls just to bribe the judge Should have scared 'em straight, should of gave 'em tough love But that's when they hauled him from the jury to the warden Everybody had a price but this time they can't afford 'em
