Well I'm a gangster in 1934 Junkies, winos, pimps, and whores And all you men, women and kids Best stay out the way I just left your town Took all your loot Wore a pink carnation and a pinstripe suit A hopped up V8 Ford And some two-tone shoes And I'm already gone I left a pool of blood and sorrow I've got the machine gun blues I'll be out of here before the break of dawn Hit the highway Smoke a big cigar Gonna stop and bury the cash Then get some more There's only one thing on my mind That's makin' across that ol' state line Amid a hail of avenging bullets That are meant for me And I'm already gone I left a path of pure destruction I've got the machine gun blues Already done My life will soon be though I've got the machine gun blues I'm public enemy number one I'm sorry for all the things that I've done If indeed we do cross paths It's nothing personal And I'm already gone I left a trail of devastation I've got the machine gun blues Already gone My life will soon be though I've got the machine gun blues
