My (1)__________ was a bank robber
But he never hurt nobody
He (2)________ loved to live (3)________ way
And he (4)__________ to steal your money

Saying how bad (6)________ life is
So we came to jazz it up

Don't forget to grovel
Daddy was a bank robber
But he (9)__________ hurt nobody
He (10)________ loved to (11)________ that way
And he loved to take your money
What law?

The old man (12)__________ up in a bar
Said, "I've never (13)________ in prison
A lifetime serving one machine
Is ten times worse than prison"
Imagine if all the boys in jail
Could get out now together
What do you think (14)________ wanna say to us
While we were being clever
Someday you'll meet your rockin' chair
'Cause that's where we're spinnin'
There's no point to want to comb your hair
When it's gray and thinin'
Hey

Hey
Daddy was a bank robber
But he (15)__________ (16)________ nobody
He just loved to live (17)________ way
And he loved to steal your money
So we came to jazz it up
We (18)__________ loved a shovel
Break your back to earn your pay
And don't (19)____________ to grovel
Hey

Get away, get away
Get away, get away
Get away, get away
Get away

But he never hurt nobody
He just loved to live that way
And he (21)__________ to (22)__________ (23)________ money
Hey
Run, rabbit, run

Strike out boy
For the hills
I can't (24)________ that hole in the wall
I (25)________ that they (26)__________ will
Daddy was a bank robber
But he never hurt nobody...
