Johnny's in the basement, mixin' up the medicine
I'm on the pavement, thinkin' about the government
The man in a trench coat, badge out, laid off
Says he's got a bad cough, wants to get it paid off
D7
Look out kid, it's somethin' you did
   A
God knows when, but you're doin' it again
You better duck down the alleyway, looking for a new friend
    E
The man in the coonskin cap in a pig pen
        A
Wants 11 dollar billsyou only got

 Maggie comes fleet foot, face full of black soot
Talkin' that the heat put plants in the bed, but
Phone's tapped anyway
Maggie says the many say
They must bust in early May
                   D7
Orders from the D. A 
                                    A
Look out kid, don't matter what you did
Walk on your tip toes, donât try âNoDozâ
                                                    E
Better stay away from those that carry around a fire hose
Keep a clean nose, watch the plainclothes
A
You don't need a weather man to know which way the wind

A
Oh, get sick, get well, hang around a ink well
Hang bail, hard to tell if anything is gonna sell
Try hard, get barred, get back, ride rail
                                            D7
Get jailed, jump bail, join the Army if you fail
Look out kid, you're gonna get hit
A
By losers, cheaters, sixtime users
                       E
Hanging 'round the theaters
Girl by the whirlpool's looking for a new fool
A                                           A
 Don't follow leaders, awatch the parking me

Oh, get born, keep warm
Short pants, romance
Learn to dance, get dressed
Get blessed, try to be a success
Please her, please him, buy gifts
Don't steal, don't lift
                                                  D7
20 years of schoolin' and they put you on the day shift
Look out kid, they keep it all hid
   A
Better jump down a manhole, light yourself a candle
                                         E
Don't wear sandals, try to avoid the scandals
Don't want to be a bum, you better chew gum
A
The pump don't work 'cause the vandals took the hand
