Tin Pan Alley

Went down to Tin Pan Alley

See what was going on

Things was too hot down there

Couldn't stay very long

Hey hey hey hey, Alley's the roughest place I've ever been

All the people down there

Livin' for their whisky, wine, and gin

I heard a woman scream

Yeah and I peeped through the door

Some cat was workin' on Annie with a

Lord with a two-by-four

Hey hey hey hey, Alley's the roughest place I've ever been

All the people down there

Livin' for their whisky, wine, and gin

I heard a pistol shoot

Yeah and it was a .44

Somebody killed a c___ shooter cause he didn't

Shake, rattle, and roll

Hey hey hey hey, Alley's the roughest place I've ever been

All the people down there

Killin' for their whisky, wine, and gin

I saw a cop standing

With his hand on his gun

He said "this is a raid, boy

Nobody run"

Hey hey hey hey, Alley's the roughest place I've ever been

Yeah they took me away from Alley

Lord they took me right back to the pen
