Daddy was a bankrobber
But he never hurt anybody
He just loved to live that way
And he loved to steal your moneySome is rich and some is poor
That's the way the world is
But I don't believe in lying back
And sayin' how bad your luck isSo we came to jazz it up
We never loved a shovel
Break your back to earn your pay
An' don't forget to grovelThe old man spoke up in bar
Said i never been in prison
A lifetime supply serving one machine
Is ten times worse than prisonImagine if all the boys in jail
Could get out now together
Whadda you think they'd want
To say to us while we was being clever
