1
i can feel the life runnin' out of me workin' here at pete's
2
two years ago it was just the thing
3
workin' cars part time every week
4
i met 'em both at a drag race
5
they both dressed pretty snappy that day
6
pete's wife peg put the make on me
7
while pete just looked the other way
8
now no one can say what your future will hold
9
or what your life will have in store
10
we went home that night
11
pete passed out on the couch
12
and then peg pulled me down on the floor
13
well, i know she knew what she was doing
14
forbidden fruit, but what the hell, i bit
15
that's all it took, my fate was sealed
16
that night the flame was lit
17
and every night when the lights go out
18
pete drinks his booze and then he passes out
19
and i hear a footstep outside my door
20
and then i remember what i started working here for
21
peg and pete and me
22
one and one and one make three
23
peg and pete and me
24
one and one and one make three
25
now tell me what would you do if you were in my shoes?
26
tonight peg, we gotta stop this thing
27
i don't know if we can, peg said
28
"don't worry, now pete's asleep and i've got a certain plan
29
you know everything is in my name," she said,
30
"and anyway i love you so very much
31
he'll never feel a thing
32
just like he never woke up
33
and after that it will be just us."
34
every night when the lights go out
35
pete drinks his booze and then he passes out
36
and i hear a footstep outside my door
37
and then i remember what i started working here for
38
peg and pete and me
39
one and one and one make three
40
peg and pete and me
41
one and one and one make three
42
now tell me what would you do if you were in my shoes?
43
the next morning when i woke up peg was gone
44
but the detective said, "son, you gotta come downtown with me
45
'cause we know you killed pete dead."
46
the jury found me guilty
47
and sent me up for ninety-nine to life
48
and if there's any advice i can give from this cell
49
never trust a rich, dead man's wife
50
peg and pete and me
51
one and one and one make three
52
peg and pete and me
53
one and one and one make three
54
now tell me what would you do if you were in my shoes?
