Текст песни Shake Down - Bonfire

Heading down the freeway, just outside L. A.
I was coming back with a friend of mine
We'd been cruising 'round all day, yeah yeah yeah

We were just getting started to move when the lights came down from behind
They never told us what we had done but we're lying on the ground
'What about our rights?' I said, he said 'Not here in this town'

Chorus:
Shake down - with the gods that show no mercy
Shake down - somebody called the devil ... and he's got the gun

People just kept on driving like it happens every day
Sweat and blood running down my face
But there was nothing I could say, no no no

We couldn't move, we were scared to death but we were doing what we could
Going down somebody said 'Another night in Hollywood'

Chorus (2)

I never knew crime was so exciting
TV cops and movie stars
Don't you think it's gone so far?

Chorus

Shake down (3)

(Spoken):
Shake you down
