Down here I ain't nothing but a bum But up in Sing Sing I was on the ball club There ain't no job here I'm rightly suited for The army won't take me or I'd gladly head to war My cousin says he knows a place Where a man keeps a safe Ten thousand dollars there Just asking to walk away Ain't no choice really to be made Friday next I met him down at Harper's Bar We steeled our nerves and then we got into his car The place is empty he said and that money's as good as gone But if we meet trouble then I'll have to use my gun Broke a window by the stairs Woke a man sleeping in a chair Grabbed a pistol and he was aiming it my way Ain't no choice really to be made District Attorney said if I tell them what I know They'd go easy on me but not on Cousin Joe I told them I'd not take their deal and if they'd kindly get to the point Said I'd be doing another bid back up in the joint This time I'm up in Attica Looks like I'm back on the ballclub Spend my days now out in center field Don't you feel too bad for me All I'm stealing now is a base Sliding headfirst into home plate Twenty years maybe they'll make me leave So don't you feel too bad for me Don't you feel too bad for me
