Gimme The Goods

"Throw that bundle out before they get here Let some shark drag the thing away I can see the headlights drawing very near Let me do the talking now just in case fix you face We can make the border by tomorrow If your brilliant young Madonna doesn't do us in We should have given her the shot that you took And put her away Gimme the goods and half of the action You get the dame and get away For me it's too late But you can go straight back to the East Bay Outta here Oakland California 1948 Stella promised Blackie she was going straight Now Blackie my main man he takes the major leagues He could sell Geronimo a string of beads But Stella could sell Blackie almost anything He's lucky she ain't yet sold him up the stream Just one more job could put us back on Easy Street C'mon baby Gimme the goods and half of the action You get the dame and get away For me it's too late But you can go straight back to the East Bay Outta here I said Blackie you can't listen to the dame She's gone back on her promise now it's a losing game But we pulled off the job anyway And she cursed the day we met And Blackie took a slug or two he won't forget By now the kerbs were shining with the falling rain And I kept dousing Blackie just to keep him sane I'm wondering if it's over now or just my fevered brain Gimme the goods and half of the action You get the dame and get away For me it's too late But you can go straight back to the East Bay Outta here Gimme the goods and half of the action You get the dame and get away For me it's too late But you can go straight back to the East Bay Outta here Gimme the goods and half of the action You get the dame and get away For me it's too late But you can go straight back to the East Bay Outta here Gimme the goods and half of the action You get the dame and get away For me it's too late But you can go straight back to the East Bay Outta here"
