Sally Was a Cop Lyrics


Instrumental OpeningSally was a cop, but now she's a soldier
Another foot deep, another day older
I used to be on top, now I just roll over
I used to run hot, now I run a little colderInstrumental Break (2 Bars)They're marching up the streets, people hiding in their cupboards (wo-oh-oh-oh-oh)
From the crooked politicos to the mercenary lovers (wo-oh-oh-oh-oh)
The socialites and psychopaths are dancing with each other (wo-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Sally was a cop, but now she's a soldier (wo-oh-oh-oh-oh)Instrumental Break (2 Bars)Shot in the face in the ditches of their gutters
Thirty five bodies lying in the highway
Children forced to dig the graves of their fathers
Sally was a cop, but now she's a soldierInstrumental Break (2 Bars)They're marching up the streets, people hiding in their cupboards
From the crooked politicos to the mercenary lovers
Children forced to dig the graves of their fathers
Sally was a cop, but now she's a soldierInstrumental Break (5 Bars then fade out)

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
