Bankrobber by The Clash

My daddy was a (1)________ robber
But he never (2)________ nobody
He just loved to live that way
And he loved to (3)__________ your money
Some is rich and some is poor
And that's the way the (4)__________ is
And I don't believe in lying back
Saying how bad (5)________ life is
So we (6)________ to jazz it up
Never (7)__________ a shovel
Break your back to earn your pay
Don't forget to grovel
Daddy was a (8)________ robber
But he never (9)________ nobody
He (10)________ loved to live (11)________ way
And he (12)__________ to (13)________ your money
What law?

The old man (14)__________ up in a bar
Said, "I've never (15)________ in prison
A (16)________________ serving one machine
Is ten times worse than prison"
Imagine if all the (17)________ in jail
Could get out now together
What do you think they wanna say to us
While we were (18)__________ clever
Someday you'll meet your rockin' chair
'Cause that's where we're spinnin'
There's no (19)__________ to want to comb your hair
When it's gray and thinin'
Hey

Hey
Daddy was a bank robber
But he (20)__________ hurt nobody
He just loved to live that way
And he (21)__________ to (22)__________ your money
So we came to (23)________ it up
We never (24)__________ a shovel
Break your back to earn your pay
And don't forget to grovel
Hey

Get away, get away
Get away, get away
Get away, get away
Get away

Daddy was a (25)________ robber
But he never hurt nobody
He just (26)__________ to live that way
And he (27)__________ to steal your money
Hey
Run, rabbit, run

Strike out boy
For the hills
I can't find that hole in the wall
I know that (28)________ never will
Daddy was a bank robber
But he never (29)________ nobody...
