Earthworm Lyrics

Life is cheap if you got no cash

You can pay lay away

Let that money be your game

Sure you want to play.

Borrow against what you don't have

Pay it down to pay it back

Take a chance to break away

Feel the whip 'cross your back.

"Tote that barge and lift that bail,"

What they cried long ago

Fifty large to ride that rail

Well, that's just how it goes.

Earthworm thrives on the dirt

He is legion with no man's friend

Bad boys from New Orleans.

Bought a small tank and hit the road

Feel the heat, breath the dust

Scratch your name at the barrel's end

Never know who to trust.

Uptown, Downtown, know your place

Could be a heavy fine

Make sure no one sees your face as

You sneak across the line.

Try to look as though you belong

Don't look straight in the eyes

Keep your head down and do not smile

Boy, don't you ever cry.

Earthworm thrives on the dirt

Meets a man at the riverbedCircle - Earthworm - http://motolyrics.com/circle/earthworm-lyrics.html

Bad boys, they're from East L.A.

Players strive to make their mark

With the money they make.

Hoping they don't cross a narc

Or a foe on the take.

They don't care who they hurt

Or who has to die.

If they're 'round just be alert

Ain't no reason why.

Does the Devil guide their sin?

Does he plan from below?

Or is the evil within the man?

Greed and lust make it grow.

Make your money off other's pain

Keep the poor people high.

When their misery is your gain,

Don't you stop 'n' wonder why.

Like a cancer the sickness grows

Money keeps it alive.

How many dead? God only knows,

And kids believe the lie.

How high will the bodies pile?

How many moms will bury sons?

We turn away all the while

Feeling nothing to be done.

Earthworm thrives on the dirt

He has no future on the wheel

Bad boys from Birmingham.
