My daddy was a bankrobber 
But he never hurt nobody 
He just loved to live that way 
And he loved to steal your money 

Aome is rich, some is poor 
That's the way the world is 
But I don't believe in lying back 
Sayin' how bad your luck is 

So we came to jazz it up 
We never loved a shovel 
Break your back to earn your pay 
And don't forget to grovel 

My daddy was a bankrobber 
But he never hurt nobody 
He just loved to live that way 
And he loved to take your money 

The old man spoke up in a bar 
Said I never been in prison 
A lifetime serving one machine 
Is ten times worse than prison 

Imagine if all the boys in jail 
Could get out now together 
Whadda you think they'd want to say to us 
While we was being clever 

Someday you'll meet your rocking chair 
Cause that's where we're spinning 
There's no point to wanna comb your hair 
When it's grey and thinning 

My daddy was a bankrobber 
But he never hurt nobody 
He just loved to live that way 
And he loved to steal your money 

So we came to jazz it up 
We never loved a shovel 
Break your back to earn your pay 
And don't forget to grovel 

Get away, get away, get away... 

My daddy was a bankrobber 
But he never hurt nobody 
He just loved to live that way 
And he loved to steal your money 

Run rabbit run 

Strike out boys for the hills 
I can find that hole in the wall 
And I know that they never will 

My daddy was a bankrobber 
But he never hurt nobody 
He just loved to live that way....
