Bankrobber by The Clash

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

The old man spoke up in a bar
Said, "I've never been in prison
A lifetime serving one machine
Is ten (5)__________ worse than prison"
Imagine if all the boys in jail
Could get out now together
What do you think (6)________ wanna say to us
While we were being clever
Someday you'll meet your rockin' chair
'Cause that's where we're spinnin'
There's no point to want to (7)________ your hair
When it's gray and thinin'
Hey

Hey
Daddy was a bank robber
But he never hurt nobody
He just loved to live that way
And he loved to steal your money
So we came to (8)________ it up
We never loved 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 bank robber
But he never hurt nobody
He just loved to live that way
And he loved to steal (9)________ money
Hey
Run, rabbit, run

Strike out boy
For the hills
I can't find that hole in the wall
I know that (10)________ never will
Daddy was a bank robber
But he never hurt nobody...
