You pay enough, we’ll let them go,
Not enough their heads we will blow.

And I am broke
See your loved one
Disappearing with one stroke

Your room has a floor of dirt.
The only food you’ll be fed
Is a piece of stale bread ...

So if you want your loved ones back.
Put money in a paper sack
Drop the bag off at night,
I will get it in the morning li-ight. morning li-ight.
