There`s trouble on the streets tonight, I can feel it in my bones I had a premonition, that he should not go alone I knew the gun was loaded, but I didn`t think he`d kill Everything exploded and the blood began to spill So baby, here`s your ticket, put the suitcase in your hand Here`s a little money now, do it just the way we planned You be cool for twenty hours and I`ll pay you twenty grand
I`m sorry it went down like this, And someone had to lose, It`s the nature of the business, It`s the smuggler`s blues Smuggler`s blues
The sailors and pilots, the soldiers and the law, The pay-offs and the rip-offs, and the things nobody saw No matter if it`s heroin, cocaine, or hash, You`ve got to carry weapons `cause you always carry cash There`s lots of shady characters, lots of dirty deals Every name`s an alias in case somebody squeals It`s the lure of easy money, it`s got a very strong appeal
Perhaps you`d understand it better Standin` in my shoes It`s the ultimate enticement, It`s the smuggler`s blues Smuggler`s blues
See it in the headlines, you hear it every day They say they`re gonna stop it but it doesn`t go away They move it through Miami, sell it in L.A. They hide it up in Telluride, I mean it`s here to stay It`s propping up the governments in Columbia and Peru, You ask any DEA man, he`ll say, `There`s nothin` we can do` >From the office of the President, right down to me and you, me and you
