Used to play down at Lester's
On the other side of town
He’d say come on back and get your cash
Then he’d lay his pistol down

Over at the corner
Sideburn looks around
Didn't know what he was thinking
When he cut ole Johnny down

whats goin on
whats goin on
whats goin on
whats goin on round here

down at the Bo Ka
little Clover shuttin down
in walks long, mean, and lanky
and said lay your body down

cash house on the southside
nobody makes a sound
when a "hoodie" come in brandishing
and took those dead presidents downn

chorus

they got a Peeping Tom a creepin
at the beauty salon
Then some fool in a black pickup truck
Done mowed the Mobil station down

chorus

yeah, what’s going on
aint never seen nothing like it
mmmmhmmmm
been here for 40 years
been here for 40 years
aint nothing like it
whats goin on round here
