Social Distortion — Machine Gun Blues

[Verse 1] Well I'm a gangster in 1934 Junkies, winos, pimps, and whores And all you men, women and kids Best stay out of the way I just left your town Took all your loot Wore a pink carnation and a pinstripe suit A hopped up V8 Ford, and some two-tone shoes [Chorus] And I'm already gone I left a pool of blood and sorrow I've got the machine gun blues [Verse 2] I'll be out of here before the break of dawn Hit the highway, smoke a big cigar Gonna stop and bury the cash Then get some more There's only one thing on my mind That's makin' across that ol' state line Amid a hail of avenging bullets That are meant for me [Chorus] And I'm already gone I left a path of pure destruction I've got the machine gun blues Already gone My life will soon be through I've got the machine gun blues [Bridge] I'm public enemy number one I'm sorry for all the things that I've done If indeed we do cross paths It's nothing personal [Chorus] And I'm already gone I left a trail of devastation I've got the machine gun blues Already gone My life will soon be through I've got the machine gun blues
