Slow Down You Grave Robbing Bastard - The Meteors

Slow down you grave robbing bastard

Stop right there I hear the constable scream

Slow down you grave robbing bastard

If they think they're gonna catch me

They're all in a dream

Digging in the graveyard late at night

I need to boil up the bones

A crowd of locals heading my way

Why can't they leave me alone

They're all shouting at me

Slow down you grave robbing bastard

Stop right there I hear the constable scream

Slow down you grave robbing bastard

If they think they're gonna catch me

They're all in a dream

Can't a poor boy work in peace

I need to make me a shilling

I sell my wares to the doctors in town

They couldn't be more willing

Slow down you grave robbing bastard

Stop right there I hear the constable scream

Slow down you grave robbing bastard

If they think they're gonna catch me

They're all in a dream

Pick up my shovel and run

No time to act tough

Coppers running fast

But the long arm of the law ain't long enough

So he's shouting at me

Slow down you grave robbing bastard

Stop right there I hear the constable scream

Slow down you grave robbing bastard

If they think they're gonna catch me

They're all in a dream

Dead is dead but coin is coin

And now it's pissing down with rain

I don't know what all the fuss is about

Don't hear the corpses complain

Stopping screamming at me

Slow down you grave robbing bastard

Stop right there I hear the constable scream

Slow down you grave robbing bastard

If they think they're gonna catch me

They're all in a dream

Slow down you grave robbing bastard

Stop right there I hear the constable scream

Slow down you grave robbing bastard

If they think they're gonna catch me

They're all in a dream

Slow down you grave robbing bastard

Stop right there I hear the constable scream

Slow down you grave robbing bastard

If they think they're gonna catch me

They're all in a dream
