"song of the moment, 2006.10.14"
| |
There's trouble on the street tonight, I can feel it in my bones
I had a premonition that I should not go alone
I knew the gun was loaded but I didn't think it'd kill
Everything exploded and the blood began to spill
So baby here's your ticket, put this suitcase in your hand
Here's a little money now, do it just the way we planned
You be cool for twenty hours and I'll pay you twenty grandI'm sorry it went down like this
But someone had to lose
It's the nature of the business
It's the smuggler's blues
Smuggler's blues The sailors and the pilots, the soldiers and the law
The payoffs and the ripoffs and the things nobody saw
No matter if it's heroin, cocaine or hash
You've got to carry weapons 'cause you always carry cash
There's lots of shady characters and lots of dirty deals
Every name's an alias in case somebody squeals
It's the lure of easy money, it's got a very strong appeal Perhaps you'd understand it better
Standing in my shoes
It's the ultimate enticement
It's the smuggler's blues
Smuggler's blues You see it in the headlines, you hear it every day
They say they're gonna stop it but it doesn't go away
They move it through Miami and sell it in L.A.
They hide it up in Telluride, I mean it's here to stay
It's propping up the governments in Colombia and Peru
You ask any DEA man, he'll say there's nothin' we can do
From the office of the president right down to me and you
Me and you It's a losing proposition
But one you can't refuse
It's the politics of contraband
It's the smuggler's blues
Smuggler's blues - Glenn Frey
"Smuggler's Blues"
The Allnighter (1984) |

>If it fuels his muse, I don't care if he listens to the Macarena 24-7. (Personally, I think that's a route to insanity, but I'm making a point here.) Peter Eng
