Intro

This is the story of Johnny and Lenny
When it came to trouble, we wrought plenty.

V1

we rode into town
and we headed for a bank
we helped ourselves to a loan
and forgot to say thanks

V2
we headed outta town
then we rode right back in
we had a time with some gals who wondered,
"where in the hell we been?"

Pre-Chorus 1
then he turned around
and he smiled a knowing smile
he said, "son, one thing you'll learn from me...
crooked men never walk a straight mile"

Chorus 1
crooked men never walk a straight mile
crooked men are watchin' their back
all the time, all the while
crooked men...never walk a straight mile

V3
well, they sent us to a prison
and they put us in a cell
those gals back there were Heaven
but it hadn't ended well


V4
we tunneled outta jail
and then we crawled our way back in
"we have to wait for the sun", he said,
"or the snow'll show 'em where we've been'

Pre-Chorus 2
then he turned around
and he smiled a patient smile
he said, 'son, one thing you'll learn is true...
crooked men never walk a straight mile

Chorus2
crooked men never walk a straight mile
crooked men will sizin' you up
With a crooked smile
crooked men...never walk a straight mile

Bridge
We were runnin' loose as a goose
hopped a train at the caboose
Johnny bumped a man, and he took a stand
pretty soon they both let loose
Johnny lost a tooth, but kept his juice
cause his head is hard as a moose,
he fought that man, but called a truce
'cause we gotta keep runnin' to escape the noose, and...

Chorus 3
crooked men never walk a straight mile
crooked men are watchin' their back
all the time, all the while
crooked men...never walk a straight mile

V5
well, we hit the dusty trail
with no map and with no horse
we came upon widow Sloan
and we charted a new course

V6
Johnny headed for her arms
and I headed for the barn
I stole two horses, we rode away
but then we rode right back to her farm

Pre-Chorus 3
then the morning came
and he smiled a new day's smile
he said, "kid, one thing will keep you free...
crooked men never walk a straight mile"

Chorus 4
crooked men never walk a straight mile
crooked men'll take some pain
to avoid standin' trial
crooked men...never walk a straight mile

Outro 1
well, here we are we're still goin'
I suppose it was well worth knowin'

Outro 2 (148-159)
crooked men never walk a straight mile
crooked men never walk a straight mile
crooked men never walk a straight mile
