Give me an offer I can't refuseWife 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 crimeNo work here, so I walk the street

Sign on the door, I feel I'm beat

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 careLiving 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 againI got the loanshark blues
