Springfield Rick - Old Gangsters Never Die Lyrics



Springfield Rick - Old Gangsters Never Die Lyrics




Who did you think you were, who did you think you were fooling
You've been seeing too many movies where the bad guys are the heroes
Everything started fine and it looked like the seed was sown
Till you took up an evil stance and you came on just like Al Capone
I had to leave or I'd have gone insane
Now I hear they say you've changed, but

Old gangsters never die, old gangsters never die
Don't you ever wonder why, oh

You had me when I was green, you made me feel so dependent
It satisfied your paranoia to think I really needed you
Who did you think I was, did you think that I'd let it ride
Put down that violin case, I know just what you're trying to hide
I've got to leave, you chill me to the marrow
There's just no way you're on the straight and narrow, because

Old gangsters never die, old gangsters never die
Don't you ever wonder why, oh

(Solo)

And when I finally climbed down off your shell
You blamed everyone except yourself

Old gangsters never die, old gangsters never die
They just fade into the night, oh, bye bye
