BANK ROBBER
The Clash
[G] My Daddy was a [C] bankrob-[G]-ber
But he [G] never hurt no-[C]-bo[G]-dy
[G]
He just loved to [C] live that [G] way
And he [G] loved to [D] steal your [G] money
[G] Some is rich, and [C]
some is [G] poor
[G] That's the way the [C] world [G] is
But I [G] don't believe in [C] lying [G] back
[C] Sayin'
how [D] bad your [G] luck is
[G] So we came to [C] jazz it [G] up.
We [G] never loved a [C] sho-[G]-vel
[G]
Break your back to [C] earn your [G] pay,
An' [C] don't for-[D]-get to [G] grovel
[G] The old man spoke up [C]
in a [G] bar,
[G] Said I never been in [C] pri-[G]-son
[G] A lifetime serving [C] one ma-[G]-chine
Is [C] ten
times [D] worse than [G] prison
[G] [Imagine if all the [C] boys in [G] jail
Could [G] get out now to-[C]-ge-[G]-ther
[G] Whadda you think they'd want to [C] say to [G] us?
[C] While we was [D] being [G] clever
[G] Someday
you'll meet your [C] rocking [G] chair,
[G] Cos that's where we're [C] spin-[G]-ning
[G] There's no point to wanna
[C] comb your [G] hair,
[C] When it's [D] grey and [G] thinning
[G][C]Run rabbit [G] run
[G] Strike out boys,
for the [C] hills [G]
[G] I can find that [C] hole in the [G] wall
And I [C] know that they [D] never [G] will
[G] My Daddy was a [C] bankrob-[G]-ber
But he [G] never hurt no-[C]-bo[G]-dy
[G] He just loved to [C] live that
[G] way
And he [G] loved to [D] steal your [G] money
