Intro SOL RE LA RE
RE
I pulled into the regular pump
SOL RE
I was feelin' quite at ease
MI LA
I rolled down my window and told the man, "Fifty cents worth please"
SOL RE
Then out jumped my partner with his trusty pellet gun
RE RE LA RE
He said, "Boy, this is a holdup, keep 'a pumpin' and don't run"
Chorus
SOL LA RE
And now I wish I was somewhere other than here
SOL LA MI LA
Down in some honky tonk, sippin' on a beer
SOL LA RE
Yes I wish I was somewhere other than here
SOL RE
Cause that great fillin' station holdup
LA RE
Cost me two good years
We got fifteen dollars and a can of STP
A big ole jar of cashew nuts and a Japanese TV
Feelin' we had pulled the biggest heist of our career
We're wanted men, we'll strike again
But first let's have a beer
(repeat chorus)
We were sittin' in the Krystal
About as drunk as we could be
In walked the deputy sheriff
And he's holdin' our TV
He roughed us and he cuffed us
And he took us off to jail
No picture on a poster, no reward and no bail
(repeat chorus and fade)
