Sammy and Tex

Lyrics

Hey D.T. what you been up to
 It's been a real long time
 And your bill's past due
 Stop right there
 Don't you look away
 'Cause you've had your fun
 Now it's time to pay
 Well you know that I've been waiting
 And I'm really very patient
 But you've pushed me way too far
 'Cause you own me thirty thousand
 And with interest it's been growing
 While you've hidden in these bars
 Now I would have said duck it
 But then money by the bucket
 I hear you're raking in
 So please forgive my diction
 And prepare for crucifixion
 While I write your next of kin
 So please don't turn away
 You borrowed now you've got to pay
 Seems your mind's
 Gone a bit off track
 Time to readjust
 'Cause Sammy's back
 So Sammy started dealing
 D.T. started reeling
 As they tumbled to the floor
 The furniture was flying
 D.T. had thought of dying
 When Tex walked through the door
 Now Tex wasn't waiting
 And without hesitation
 Grabbed Sammy by the throat
 Sammy started shakin'
 A frightened slab of bacon
 Hanging like a coat
 Seemed things were going all right
 Till Sammy pulled a knife
 "If you want to cut the cards
 Sammy's gonna up the odds"
 Then everything was quiet
 A street after the riot
 Silence hung like death
 And Tex he wasn't breathing
 His body lay bleeding
 A knife inside his chest
 When D.T. saw his friend there
 He quickly lost his terror
 As something tore inside
 His face was clenched in hatred
 As his mind formulated
 How this pimp would die
 Sammy saw it in his eyes
 Thought a retreat would be wise
 "Seems I've stayed
 A bit too long
 So I'll take my things
 And Sammy's gone"
