Went down to Tin Pan Alley....See what was going on
|
Things was too hot down there....Couldn't stay very long
|
Hey hey hey hey....Alley's the roughest place I've ever been
|
All the people down there....Livin' for their whisky, wine, and gin
|
|
I heard a woman scream....Yeah and I peeked through the door
|
Some cat was workin' on Annie with a....Lord with a two-by-four
|
Hey hey hey hey....Alley's the roughest place I've ever been
|
All the people down there....Livin' for their whisky, wine, and gin
|
I heard a pistol shoot....Yeah and it was a.44
|
Somebody killed a crap shooter cause he didn't....Shake, rattle, and roll
|
Hey hey hey hey....Alley's the roughest place I've ever been
|
All the people down there....Killin' for their whisky, wine, and gin
|
|
I saw a cop standin'....with his hand on his gun
|
Said "This is a raid boys....nobody run"
|
Hey, Hey, Hey....Alley's the roughest place I've ever been
|
Yeah they took me away from tin pan alley
|
And took me right back...to the pen
