Now all the criminals in their coats and their ties

Here comes the story of the Hurricane,

If I could only turn back the clock to when God and her were born.

In a little hilltop village, they gambled for my clothes

Mama, take this badge off of me

Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed.

“There must be some way out of here,” said the joker to the thief,

Don’t follow leaders

You don’t need a weather man

Once upon a time you dressed so fine
