The Lyrics

Sorry about forgetting to change that one verse, if anyone noticed. This is the new good version.
Now the cop told the criminals
You have to get into the car
The robbers going into jail
Has been robbin' banks for months
The dealers in their cadillacs
They wanna sell their crack cocaine
But I don't get into drugs
I just stick to stealing

Chorus
The sherrif dont like it
Rob the cashbox
Rob the cashbox
The sherrif dont like it
Rob the cashbox
Rob the cashbox

By order of the jury
Cops send the robbers off to jail
For robbin' banks and exxons
With their no-do-gooder pals
But the killer just brought out
His A-K-forty-seven
The local pedophile
Got his kid molesting thumb
As soon as the sheriff
Had arrested them
Us thieves began to get away-i-yay-i-yay

Chorus
The sherrif dont like it
Rob the cashbox
Rob the cashbox
The sherrif dont like it
Rob the cashbox
Rob the cashbox

Now over at the jailhouse
Oh! they really crowd em in
Its full of drunks and druggies
And serial killers
But The cops can never catch me
Last month I robbed five banks
The cops are still lacking
A basic description!!!

Chorus
The sherrif dont like it
Rob the cashbox
Rob the cashbox
The sherrif dont like it
Rob the cashbox
Rob the cashbox

The chief called up his helicopters
He said don't let him get away
But we always lose the cops
In the back- alley way

As soon as the sherrif was
Chasing another drunk
Us robbers went into
The First National Bank

As soon as the sherrif was
Takin' him to jail
The robbers got away again

Chorus
The sherrif dont like it
Rob the cashbox
Rob the cashbox
The sherrif dont like it
Rob the cashbox
Rob the cashbox

He knows it's not legal
(Rob the cashbox Rob the cashbox)
Extreme mental retardation
(Rob the cashbox Rob the cashbox)
The gay tellers really hate it.

Not bad... there were a few pacing issues though. 4-4-4
