My daddy was a bank robber But he never hurt nobody He just loved to live that 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 never 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 never been in prison A lifetime serving one machine Is ten times worse than prison" Imagine if all the boys in jail Could get out now together What do you think they 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 comb 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 jazz 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 your money Hey Run, [Incomprehensible], run Strike out boy For the hills I can't find that hole in the wall I know that they never will Daddy was a bank robber But he never hurt nobody He just loved to live that way And he loved to steal your money
