The Touchables Lyrics

February 14, 1929, St. Valentines Day

In a warehouse on Chicago's south side

Members of the Al Calone gang

Disguised as policemen

Gunned down a dozen of Bugs Moron's boys

Three lived long enough to say (gee whiz)

Fearing for his life

Moron rushed to the South Street station

Where he was seen boarding a train heading for

(North to Alaska)

At that very moment

Elliot Press and the Touchables

Out to uphold justice, were taking their oath

(Deiner heimat ist das meer)

During the following weeks

Fifteen members of the Al Calone mob met violent deaths

Scar Melli Carpelli, Calone's top lieutenant were cornered by

Bugs Moron's boys and told

(Your sixteen, your beautiful and your mine)

Meantime at the headquarters of Elliot Press and the Touchables

(Deiner heimat ist das meer)Dickie Goodman - The Touchables - http://motolyrics.com/dickie-goodman/the-touchables-lyrics.html

That same day

Little Annie Tourtoni

Carpelli's gun mal

Paid a surprise visit to the Touchables

Two day later

(They found little Annie all covered with ice)

Cluched in her hand

The police found a note with just four words

(You talk too much)

The killing continued until Al Calone was taken into custody by Federal Agents

Following his conviction, Calone told an astonished court

(Like a rubber ball I'll come bouncing back to you)

His promise was never to be fulfilled

Their job done for them

Elliot Press and the Touchables

Turned to each other and said

(Deiner heimat ist das meer)

Now retired and living on the palatial estate of the late Al Calone

They were asked how was this possible

(Simple, we were touchable)
