Wrong Turn

A remix of an old tune on my newest cd "The Sting Of Fire"on Bandcamp...https://downtownvinnie.bandcamp.com/....WrongTurn

Had a lot on my mind,Took the back way home
Was a bad part of town for bein alone
I was feelin tuff,strapped to the hilt
The right o bear arms was how this country was built.
Shoulda done the research , asked the questions first
This nights fun would take a turn for the worse
Who woulda thought, as I started to run,
My gun was outnumbered 5 to 1
CHORUS
I took a wrong turn
I took a wrong turn,When will I learn
Took a wrong turn
I took a wrong turn, hope I don't burn

We dug up the money from the last heist
We shoulda laid low , but we rolled the dice
Folks was bitchin as the tension grew
What was many , now were few
No one was stayin around
Everybody wanted to get outta town
I said , be careful...How you choose
Before you take a match to that short fuse
CHORUS
Somehow we got lucky,got away scot free
Now we're livin in the lap of luxury
We'd never be angels or they'd clip our wings
In our dark hearts we know we did bad things
We all chose a path,we must walk alone
But we offer a toast to those who are gone
You know I'd never wish it that way
But its the truth , crime does Pay
Chorus
