[AC/DC - Nervous Shakedown lyrics]
"Freeze!" said the man cruising the beat
"You get your hands up, spread your feet"
"Don't you move an inch", I heard him say
"Or you'll be doin' time
Until the judgement day"
And he said, "Don't tell me no lies
Give me alibis 'Cause if you cross my path
You'll be doin' life" it's a dirty lie
It's a shakedown
(and it's a nervous shakedown)
Another shakedown (another nervous shakedown)
Well it's a shakedown
(and it's a nervous shakedown)
We got a shakedown another nervous shakedown
It's looking like a set-up
"Take a dime, " said the man
"you can make one call"
"You got a one way ticket to the county hall"
Well the judge looked high and I looked low
When he smiled at me it was a one man show
He said, "10-to-5, the jury decides
Double parole, if you survive"
It's a dirty lie
Lord they're gonna get you this time
And throw away the key
(Lock him up)
It's a shakedown
(and it's a nervous shakedown)
Another shakedown (another nervous shakedown)
You got a shakedown
(and it's a nervous shakedown)
Well it's a shakedown
(another nervous shakedown)
Shake it down, shake it down
(and it's a nervous shakedown)
Well it's a shakedown
(another nervous shakedown)
Shake it down, shake it down
(and it's a nervous shakedown)
It's a shakedown
It's a shakedown on you
Yes
"You get your hands up, spread your feet"
"Don't you move an inch", I heard him say
"Or you'll be doin' time
Until the judgement day"
And he said, "Don't tell me no lies
Give me alibis 'Cause if you cross my path
You'll be doin' life" it's a dirty lie
It's a shakedown
(and it's a nervous shakedown)
Another shakedown (another nervous shakedown)
Well it's a shakedown
(and it's a nervous shakedown)
We got a shakedown another nervous shakedown
It's looking like a set-up
"Take a dime, " said the man
"you can make one call"
"You got a one way ticket to the county hall"
Well the judge looked high and I looked low
When he smiled at me it was a one man show
He said, "10-to-5, the jury decides
Double parole, if you survive"
It's a dirty lie
Lord they're gonna get you this time
And throw away the key
(Lock him up)
It's a shakedown
(and it's a nervous shakedown)
Another shakedown (another nervous shakedown)
You got a shakedown
(and it's a nervous shakedown)
Well it's a shakedown
(another nervous shakedown)
Shake it down, shake it down
(and it's a nervous shakedown)
Well it's a shakedown
(another nervous shakedown)
Shake it down, shake it down
(and it's a nervous shakedown)
It's a shakedown
It's a shakedown on you
Yes
