Get yourself cooler lay yourself low,
Coincidental murder with nothing to show.
The judge constipation will go to his head,
His wife's aggravation you're soon enough dead.
It's the same old story,
Same old song and dance my friend.
It's the same old story,
Same old song and dance my friend.
Gotcha with the cocaine they found with your gun,
No smoothy face lawyer to getcha undone.
Say love ain't the same on the south side of town,
you could look but you ain't gonna find it around.
It's the same old story,
Same old song and dance my friend.
It's the same old story,
Same old story same old song and dance.
Fate comes a knockin',
Doors start lockin',
Your old time connection,
Change your direction,
You ain't gonna change it,
Can't rearrange it,
Can't stand the pain when,
It's all the same to you my friend.
When you're low down and dirty from walkin' the street,
With your old hurdy-gurdy no one to meet.
Say love ain't the same on the south side of town,
You could look but you ain't gonna find it around.
It's the same old story,
Same old song and dance my friend.
It's the same old story,
Same old song same old song and dance.
