Well he was fueled by a lack, drew inspiration from a need.
So many problems to crack and mouths to feed.
Crooked was the path, and brazen was the walk.
A c*cky swagger, up the ladder, and could he ever talk.
The last hurrah? Nah! I`d do it again.
The Rascal King behind the bars
or the one in front of them.
The love of God and constant contradictions,
With a smile, wink, or nod.
What`s stranger, fact or fiction?
And never ceasing to amaze me on a regular basis.
First hand in his pocket or first fist into the faces.
The last hurrah? Nah! I`d do it again.
The Rascal King behind the bars
or the one in front of them.
A legendary character.
When? Only then.
Where? Only there.
A hero or a hooligan? Well, that part`s just never clear.
Pride or shame, it`s all the same.
Who`s innocent or who`s to blame?
Politics or just a game?
Well in the end they knew his name.
The last hurrah? Nah! I`d do it again.
The Rascal King behind the bars
or the one in front of them?
