Gangsters and Thugs

[Chorus: Tim Armstrong]

Gangsters and thugs

Criminals and hoods

Some of my friends sell records

Some of my friends sell drugs

[Verse 1: Tim Armstrong]

You stand by me, I stand by you

If there's a fight, I'm the one to come to

Good and bad times we've been through

You got my back and I got yours too

All of my life you are in my crew

I'd do anything for you

Beat someone black and blue

Black and blue and I'd do it for you

[Chorus: Tim Armstrong]

Gangsters and thugs

Criminals and hoods

Some of my friends sell records

Some of my friends sell drugs

[Chorus: Tim Armstrong]

Gangsters and thugs

Criminals and hoods

Some of my friends sell records

Some of my friends sell drugs

[Verse 2: Skinhead Rob]

Tried to tell 'em leave us alone

Still riding with them fellas down that unknown road

There ain't no telling, I told 'em before

Wouldn't listen, no more bitching, leave 'em all on the floor

I know this label's funny, they take 'til it hurts

That's why I still got that nina and I still got that work

Tomorrow ain't promised, I'll smoke it today

That zone will run you five and I'ma on my way

[Chorus: Tim Armstrong]

Gangsters and thugs

Criminals and hoods

Some of my friends sell records

Some of my friends sell drugs

[Verse 3: Skinhead Rob]

It's official, I'm destined to fail

And I ain't trying to catch no case, I got no money for bail

I'm hurting up in the E.R. before New Year's Eve

Said there's nothing we can do and we suggest that you leave

30 G's, no insurance, they don't give a damn

Back to breaking out the scale, break it down into grams

They say you can't win for losing, I swear it's the truth

Same shit, different day, man, I swear what's the use?

[Verse 4: Tim Armstrong]

It got us paid with good intentions

I got dirty in two processions

I make a living, ain't got no pension

For transcriptions of my life on tension

The world is mine, no limit, I can do it

Every drama in life, I've been through it

Even if I had it good and I blew it

Regret nothing, move on and say fuck it

[Chorus: Tim Armstrong]

Gangsters and thugs

Criminals and hoods

Some of my friends sell records

Some of my friends sell drugs

[Chorus: Tim Armstrong]

Gangsters and thugs

Criminals and hoods

Some of my friends sell records

Some of my friends sell drugs
