If you choose a song for the minute Get it right this time You’re making me testify To a melody crime You’re giving me prison time For a melody crime If you choose, you’ve go to pick ‘em good
If they hand you those little lead blocks To put the story down You better not let those ink-stained scribes Turn the story around Cause they will given half a chance Get the story wrong If you spill, you’ve got to spill ‘em good
I might take my sources for a ride Loop them round the block I’ve seen the sea, I can’t turn the tide You can’t make them talk They’ll wave, they’ll smile, they’ll wink You can’t make them talk If you quit, you’ve got to quit ‘em good.
