SINGLE: Nervous Shakedown-Rock And Roll Ain't Noise Pollution(live)/

Sin City(live)-This House Is On Fire(live) (1983)

(Young, Young, Johnson)

"Freeze", said the man cruisin' the beat

"You get your hands up and spread your feet"

"Don't you move an inch", I heard him say

"Or you'll be doin' time until the judgement day"

And he said, "Don't tell me no lies, give me alibis

'Cause if you cross my path, you'll be doin' life"

It's a dirty lie

CHORUS:

It's a shakedown

And it's a nervous shakedown

A nervous shakedown

Another nervous shakedown

It's a shakedown

And it's a nervous shakedown

We got a shakedown

Another nervous shakedown

(It's more like a set-up)

"Take a dime", said the man, "you can make one call

You got a one-way ticket to the County Hall"

Well, the judge looked high and I looked low

And when he smiled at me it was a one-man show

He said, "Two to five, the jury decides

Double parole if you survive"

It's a dirty lie

CHORUS

Law is gonna get you this time

And throw away the key

CHORUS

Shake you down, shake you down

And it's another shakedown

Well it's a shakedown

Another nervous shakedown

Shake you down, shake you down

And it's a nervous shakedown

It's a shakedown

It's a shakedown on - you, yes
