54 46 Was My Number Songtext
von Toots & The Maytals

Stick it up, mister!
Hear what I say sir, yeah yeah
Get your hands in the air, sir!
Then you will get no hurt, mister, no no no

I said yeah (I said yeah)
What they say (listen what they say)
Don′t you hear? I say, yeah (yeah yeah)
Listen what they say (listen what they say)

Do you believe I would take such a thing with me
And give it to a police man?
I wouldn't do that (ooh, ooh)
And if I do that, I would say "Sir
Come on and put the charge on me"
I wouldn′t do that, no (ooh, ooh)
I wouldn't do that (ooh, ooh)


I'm not a fool to hurt myself
So I was innocent of what they done to me
They was wrong
They were wrong (ooh, ooh)

Give it to me one time (huh)
Give it to me two times (huh-huh)
Give it to me three times (huh-huh-huh)
Give it to me four times (huh-huh-huh-huh)

54-46 was my number
Right now, someone else has that number
54-46 was my number, was my number
Right now, someone else has that number

I said yeah (I said yeah)
Listen what they say (listen what they say)
Oh I say hear me now (yeah yeah)
Listen what they say (listen what they say)

Give it to me one time (huh)
Give it to me two times (huh-huh)
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme
No, no, no, no
