Well time is always money
For the boys at Union Square
You can bust your ass till doomsday
But don´t forget to say your prayers
Someone´s got a wad on the backstreet.
Sacco got a bran´ new slack
And your baby is handcuffed on the front seat
You just sit right there, boy and relax
I´m goin´ down down down
I´m goin´ down down down
I´m goin´ down down down
I´m goin´ down down down
Well they spill out of the Cinema 14
To that drag bar there on the block
Best live show by far in the whole east coast
With a bank rolled up in your sock
She stand right there for your pleasure
Half Puerto Rican Chinese
Your got to find your baby somebody to measure
I´m goin´ to get me some of these baby.
I´m goin´ down down down
I´m goin´ down down down
I´m goin´ down down down
I´m goin´ down down down
Four in the mornin´ on a Sunday
Sacco drinkin´ whiskey in church
Half pint festival brandy
That ´bout to fall right off his perch
The guy in the sweaters off duty
Out in front on the welfare hotel
The guy in the dress is a beauty
Go all the way and I swear you never can tell
I´m goin´ down down down
I´m goin´ down down down
I´m goin´ down down down
I´m goin´ down down down
For the boys at Union Square
You can bust your ass till doomsday
But don´t forget to say your prayers
Someone´s got a wad on the backstreet.
Sacco got a bran´ new slack
And your baby is handcuffed on the front seat
You just sit right there, boy and relax
I´m goin´ down down down
I´m goin´ down down down
I´m goin´ down down down
I´m goin´ down down down
Well they spill out of the Cinema 14
To that drag bar there on the block
Best live show by far in the whole east coast
With a bank rolled up in your sock
She stand right there for your pleasure
Half Puerto Rican Chinese
Your got to find your baby somebody to measure
I´m goin´ to get me some of these baby.
I´m goin´ down down down
I´m goin´ down down down
I´m goin´ down down down
I´m goin´ down down down
Four in the mornin´ on a Sunday
Sacco drinkin´ whiskey in church
Half pint festival brandy
That ´bout to fall right off his perch
The guy in the sweaters off duty
Out in front on the welfare hotel
The guy in the dress is a beauty
Go all the way and I swear you never can tell
I´m goin´ down down down
I´m goin´ down down down
I´m goin´ down down down
I´m goin´ down down down
