Once upon a time not long ago
When people wore pajamas and lived life slow
When laws were stern and justice stood
The kid pulled out a gun he said, why you hit me?
The bow was set straight for the cop's kidney
The cop got scared the kid he starts to figure
I'll do years if I pull [Fm] this trigger
So he cold dashed and ran around a lot
Popped radios [Ebm] into another [Gb] lady cop
[N] He ran by a tree there he saw his sister
Shot for the head he shot back but he missed her
Looked around good and from expectations
He decided he'd hit for the subway station
But she was coming and he made a left
He was running top speed till he was out of breath
Knocked an old man down and swore he'd never hit a cop
He killed him then he made his move to an abandoned building
Ran upstairs [F] up to the top floor
Opened up a door there guess who [Fm] he saw?
Dave the dope bean shooting dope
Who don't know the meaning [Ebm] of water [Gb] nor [Fm] soap
He said I [Ab] need bullets hurry up [N] run
The lowlife brought back this dope machine gun
He went outside but there was cops all over
Then he digs into a car a stolen Nova
Raced up the block flew in 83
Crashed into a tree in University
Escaped alive though the car was statted
Radicals shattered the roof
All the cops gathered [Ab] ran out of bullets
And he still had static
Grabbed the pregnant lady [F] and pulled out the automatic
Pointed at her head he said the gun was [Gb] full of lead
He told the cops back off or honey here's dead
Deep [N] in his heart he knew he was wrong
So he let the lady go and he starts to run on
Sirens sounded he seemed astounded
And before long the little boy got surrounded
He [Ab] dropped his gun so went the glory
And this is the way I [Gb] have to end this story
[E] He was only seventeen [Bbm] in a mad man's dream
The cops [E] shot the kid and [Dbm] still would hear him scream
[Abm] This same Friday night he was shot
Honey [Eb] so don't you dare laugh
[Ab] Just another case [Fm] about the wrong path
Straight [D] and narrow [Fm] on your soldier's path
[Gbm] Good night!
Good night!
[C] Good night!
