Machine Gun Blues Lyrics

Well I'm a gangster 1934
Junkies, Winos, Pimps & Whores
And all you men, women and kids
Best get out the way

I just left your town, took all your loot,
Bought a pink carnation and a pinstripe suit,
A hopped-up V8 Ford and some two-tone shoes

And I'm already gone, I left a pool of blood and sorrow
I've got the Machine Gun Blues

I'll be out of here for the break of dawn,
I'll hit the highway, smoke a big cigar,
Got to stop and bury the cash, and get some more

There's only one thing on my mind,
That's making it across that ol' state line,
Without a hail of avenging bullets,
Waiting there for me

And I'm already gone, I've left a path of pure destruction,
I've got the Machine Gun Blues

I'm already gone, my life will soon be through,
I've got the Machine Gun Blues

I'm public enemy number one
I'm sorry for the things that I've done
If indeed we do cross path, it's nothing personal

And I'm already gone, I've left a trail of devastation,
I've got the Machine Gun Blues

I'm already gone, my life will soon be through,
I've got the Machine Gun Blues
