Get yourself a cooler
lay yourself low
coincidental murder
with nothing to show
With the judge
constipation
will go to his head
And his wife's
aggravation
you're soon
enough dead
It's the same old story
same old song
and dance
my friend
It's the same old story
same old song
and dance
my friend
Shady lookin' loser
you played
with my gun
no smooth face lawyer
to getcha undone
Say love ain't the same
on the south side
of town
You could look
but you ain't gonna
find it around
It's the same old story
same old song
and dance
my friend
It's the same old story
same old story
same old song
and dance...
Fate comes a-knockin'
doors start lockin'
Your old time
connection
change your direction
ain't gonna change it
can't re-arrange it
Can't stand the pain
when it's all the
same to you
my friend
When you're low
down and dirty
from walkin'
the street
With your old
hurdy gurdy
no-one to meet
Say love ain't the same
on the south side
of town
You could look
but you ain't gonna
find it around
It's the same old story
same old song
and dance
my friend
It's the same old story
same old story
same old song
and dance...
