[C] This trouble on the street tonight I can feel it [G] in my bones
[C] I had premonition that he should not [Bb] go alone [C] I knew the gun was loaded but I didn't think
he'd kill Everything exploded and the blood began to
spill [F] So maybe here's your ticket
With the suitcase [C] in your hand [F] Here's a little money now
Do it [F] just the [C] way we planned You'd be cool for twenty hours
And I'll pay you twenty grand [Bb]

Someone [D] had to lose [F] It's the nature of the business
[C] Smugglers blues Smugglers blues
[Bb]
[C] Sailors and the pilot Soldiers and the law
The payoff and the rip-offs And the things nobody saw
No matter if it's heroin, cocaine or hash You've got to carry weapons
Cause you're always [G] carrying cash [F] Lots of shady characters
And lots of dirty deals Every name's an alias
In case [Bb] somebody squeals [C] It's the lure of easy money
