California State by The Buffalo Skinners Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 2011

Well Sonny was mean and he sure was tough
I said hey man help me stick em up
And he didn't say nothing, just nodded his head
Picked up his pistol and filled it with lead
Now for Sonny, well killing's what he done
He'd go in with six rounds and end up with one
And now three men down and one man dead
He'll make me do five to ten
California state here we come
We'll either end up in the penn or on the run
I said "Sonny Lee, won't you listen to me
And please don't load that gun"
Well as we moved down sixty six
He said I'm packing my pistol you don't need your six
I always got one strapped to my hip
If you need backup I won't slip
California state here we come
We'll either end up in the penn or on the run
I said "Sonny Lee, won't you listen to me
And please don't load that gun"
The mistake of sticking up a bank in Cali
Was the cops knew the look of Sonny Lee
So when we busted in he was shot down dead
Man you shouldn't have loaded that gun!
California State Penn here I come
Sonny Lee's dead and I'm on the run
Sonny Lee you should have listened to me
And you shouldn't have loaded that gun
Sonny Lee lived by the gun
Sonny Lee died by the gun
Sonny Lee's in the Cemetery
And now I'm on the run
Sonny Lee lived by the gun
Sonny Lee died by the gun
Sonny Lee's in the Cemetery
And now I'm on the run
