Got the loanshark blues
Got the loanshark blues
Give me an offer I can't refuse

Wife needs shoes, the kids must eat
Feel so cold, I can't feel my feet
Can't get my hands on one thin dime
I'm gonna turn to a life of crime

No work here, so I walk the street
Sign on the door, I feel I'm beat
I know you run Pier 15
You got a grip on all my dreams

I got the loanshark blues

Give me a number I can't refuse, yeah

Give me a number I can't refuse, yeah

Roofs got holes, see the sky
I can't get straight and I have tried
I'm in your debt, I'm well aware
I'll break the law cause I don't care

Living on a knife edge I have been
But I'm too tough to just give in
Moving on down with the Longshore men
On the docks we're locked out again

I got the loanshark blues
The loanshark blues
Give me a number I can't refuse

I got the loanshark blues
Got the loanshark blues
Give me a number I can't refuse, yeah, yeah
Loanshark babe
