Jamie T - Robin Hood lyrics
[Jamie T - Robin Hood lyrics]
Ah ah ah ah
Riding in the back seat
Rolling through the neighbourhood
Brought up in the back streets
He wouldn't change if he could
It's better than the factory
Or the shopping mall where you work
Johnny doesn't actually
Have to load the gun to make it work
And all the boys 'round Johnny
They wanna be dealers and thugs
But Johnny knows that it ain't no good
When the teacher asked him
"Who would you be if you could?"
"I wanna be like Robin Hood robin Hood"
He ran in from the alley
To the Halifax where she works
You've gotta love Sally
She didn't flinch once when he burst
In through the doorway
With a sawn-off under his shirt
She knew in the worst way
That he was the man for her
And all the boys 'round Johnny
They wanna be rappers and thugs
But Johnny knows that it ain't no good
When the teacher asked him
"Who would you be if you could?"
Said, "I'd be like Robin Hood"
And I'll steal from the rich
I'll give to the poor
I'll stop police from knocking down the door
I'll steal it all, then I'll steal more
And I'll never end up behind
The Jail Guitar Doors
(If there was, he'd only get hurt
Alright, woo)
And to this day, as a natural fact
In the best way
They've still got each other's backs
Fifteen years, two heart attacks
Two children sally's mother always asks her
"What is it about Johnny
What is it about Johnny
That made you bother?"
She says, "There's a few things that are true
In this life of wonder"
One: Everybody hates the law
And everyone loves a bank robber, robber
Robber robber, robber, robber
Loves a bank robber, robber, robber, robber
Robber
Loves a bank robber, robber, robber, robber
Robber
Loves a bank robber, robber, robber, robber
Robber
Loves a bank robber, robber, robber, robber
Robber
Loves a bank robber, robber, robber, robber
Robber
Loves a bank robber, robber, robber, robber
Robber
Loves a bank robber, robber, robber, robber
Robber loves a bank robber
And all the boys 'round Johnny
They wanna be rappers and thugs
But Johnny knows that it ain't no good
When the teacher asked him
"Who would you be if you could?"
Said, "I'd be like Robin Hood robin Hood"
