Bonfire - Shake Down lyrics
[Bonfire - Shake Down lyrics]
I was coming back with a friend of mine
We'd been cruising 'round all day
Yeah yeah yeah
We were just getting started to move when
The lights came down from behind
They never told us what we had done
But we're lying on the ground
'What about our rights?' I said
He said 'Not here in this town'
Shake down - with the gods that show no mercy
Shake down - somebody called the devil
And he's got the gun
People just kept on driving like
It happens every day
Sweat and blood running down my face
But there was nothing I could say, no no no
We couldn't move
We were scared to death but we
Were doing what we could
Going down somebody said 'Another
Night in Hollywood'
Shake down - with the gods that show no mercy
Shake down - somebody called the devil
And he's got the gun
Shake down - with the gods that show no mercy
Shake down - somebody called the devil
And he's got the gun
I never knew crime was so exciting
TV cops and movie stars
Don't you think it's gone so far?
Shake down - with the gods that show no mercy
Shake down - somebody called the devil
And he's got the gun
Shake down shake down
Shake down
Shake you down
