Lawyers, Guns and Money

Info
I think Meat has performed this one before, but it was never recorded until he performed it on the VH1 Storytellers CD. Oddly, lyrics were not included on that CD's sleeve, although lyrics for all the other Meat tunes we already knew by heart were. Strange.

I believe this is originally a Warren Zevon tune.

Lyrics
Well I went home with the waitress
You know the way I always do
Well how was I to know, yeah
She was with the Russians too

Now I'm gambling in Havana
You know I took a little risk
Send lawyers, guns and money
Daddy won't you get me out of this?

I'm an innocent bystander
Oh but somehow I got stuck
Between a rock and a hard place
And I'm down on my luck
Oh yeah I'm down on my luck
Oh yeah I'm down on my luck

Oh baby I'm down on my luck
I'm so far down I don't think I'll ever get up
Yeah
If it weren't for bad luck
Oh if it weren't for real bad luck
I would have no luck at all
Get it on

Now I'm stranded in Honduras
I'm a desperate man
Send lawyers, guns and money
The shit has hit the fan

Send lawyers, guns and money, woo
Send lawyers, guns and money, woo, woo, woo, woo

Yeah
Alright
Come on

Get me out of this
Send lawyers, guns and money
You know the shit has hit the fan
