I went home with a waitress the way I always do.

How was I to know she was with the Russians, too?

I was gambling in Havana, I took a little risk.

Send lawyers, guns, and money.  Dad, get me out of this!

I'm the innocent bystander.

But, somehow I got stuck

Between a rock and a hard place.

And I'm down on my luck.

Yes, I'm down on my luck.

Yes, I'm down on my luck!

 

Send lawyers, guns and money.

Send lawyers, guns and money.

Send lawyers, guns and money.

Send lawyers, guns and money.
