- Glenn Frey Smugglers Blues 歌詞
- Glenn Frey
- Theres trouble on the streets tonight,
I can feel it in my bones.
I had a premonition,
That he should not go alone.
I knew the gun was loaded,
But I didnt think hed kill.
Everything exploded,
And the blood began to spill.
So baby, heres your ticket,
Put the suitcase in your hand.
Heres a little money now ,
Do it just the way we planned.
You be cool for twenty hours
And Ill pay you twenty grand.
Im sorry it went down like this,
And someone had to lose ,
Its the nature of the business,
Its the smugglers blues.
Smugglers
Blues The sailors and pilots,
The soldiers and the law,
The pay offs and the rip offs,
And the things nobody saw.
No matter if its ******, *******, or hash,
Youve got to carry weapons
Cause you always carry cash.
Theres lots of shady characters,
Lots of dirty deals.
Evry names an alias
In case somebody squeals.
Its the lure of easy money,
Its gotta very strong appeal.
Perhaps youd understand it better
Standin in my shoes,
Its the ultimate enticement,
Its the smugglers blues,
Smugglers blues.
See it in the headlines ,
You hear it evry day.
They say theyre gonna stop it,
But it doesnt go away.
They move it through
Miami, sell it in
L.A., They hide it up in
Telluride,
I mean its here to stay.
Its propping up the governments in
Colombia and
Peru, You ask any
D.E.A. man,
Hell say
Theres nothin we can do,
From the office of the
President,
Right down to me and you, me and you.
Its a losing proposition,
But one you cant refuse.
Its the politics of contraband,
Its the smugglers blues,
Smugglers blues.
