A friend of a friend needs a favor
|
No questions asked, there's not much more to say
|
|
Me and the wife, we need the money
|
We've got four kids all hungry, one on the way
|
Slip these sweat socks in your shirt and pray they think your packin'
|
Be sure to keep your head down, don't look 'em in the eye
|
And don't get fancy, Ricky, we ain't Jimmy Cagney
|
Look at me, let's do the job and let's get home tonight
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
I got a half tank of gas and if we run all the lights
|
We'll slip across the border on the wrong side of right
|
And just like Butch and Sundance we'll ride until the dawn
|
Sipping whiskey, singing cowboy songs
|
On the Right Side of Wrong
|
|
We picked a helluva of a night, from the shore I see the skyline
|
In a couple of hours from now Rick, we're gonna get out of this life
|
We'll stop for smokes, I brought a six pack, we'll stop at lookers on the way back
|
Hell, we'll laugh this off, keep your fingers crossed that all goes well tonight
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
I got a half tank of gas and if we run all the lights
|
We'll slip across the border on the wrong side of right
|
And just like Butch and Sundance we'll ride until the dawn
|
Sipping whiskey, singing cowboy songs
|
On the Right Side of Wrong
|
|
We'll make the grade, they'll know our names, I need a friend to drive here
|
Wear my necklace of St. Christopher and talk to him while I go inside
|
I'll take that suitcase, get the cash and we'll be gone before you know
|
Wait until we tell the girls we're moving down to the Gulf of Mexico...

|
A friend of a friend needed a favor
|
Life was just what happened while we were busy making plans
|
We never saw nothing, there was a run-in
|
.9 millimeter steel was coming for the windshield of that Oldsmobile
|
As the cop said, "Show your hands!"
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
I got a half tank of gas and if we run all the lights
|
We'll slip across the border on the wrong side of right
|
And just like Butch and Sundance we'll ride until the dawn
|
Sipping whiskey, singing cowboy songs
|
On the Right Side of Wrong
