"Freeze," said the man cruisin' the beat
"You get your hands up, spread your feet"
"Don't you move an inch," I heard him say
"Or you'll be doin' time until the judgement day"
And he said, "Don't tell me no lies, give me alibise
'Cause if you cross my path, you'll be doin' life"
It's a dirty lie
It's a shakedown
And it's a nervous shakedown
Another shakedown
Another nervous shakedown
Well, it's a shakedown
And it's a nervous shakedown
We got a shakedown
Another nervous shakedown
It's lookin' like a set-up
"Take a dime," said the man, "You can make one call"
"You get a one-way ticket to the county hall"
Well, the judge looked high and I looked low
And when he smiled at me, it was a one-man show
He said, "Two to five, the jury dicides
Double parole, if you survive"
It's a dirty lie
It's a shakedown
And it's a nervous shakedown
Another shakedown
Another nervous shakedown
Well, it's a shakedown
And it's a nervous shakedown
We got a shakedown
Another nervous shakedown
Lord, they're gonna get you this time
And throw away the key
Lock him up
Yeah, it's a shakedown
And it's a nervous shakedown
Another shakedown
Another nervous shakedown
We got a shakedown
And it's a nervous shakedown
Well, it's a shakedown
Another nervous shakedown
Shake it down, shake it down
And it's a nervous shakedown
Well, it's a shakedown
Another nervous shakedown
Shake it down, shake it down
And it's a nervous shakedown
Oh, it's a shakedown
It's a shakedown on you
Yes!
