| Lyrics: | Tin Pan Alley
performed by Stevie Ray Vaughn
Went down to Tin Pan Alley/See what was
going on
Things was too hot down there/Couldn't stay very long
Hey hey hey hey/Alley's the
roughest place I've ever been
All the people down there /Livin' for their whisky, wine, and
gin
I heard a woman scream/Yeah and I peeped through the door
Some cat was workin'
on Annie with a... /Lord with a two-by-four
Hey hey hey hey/Alley's the roughest place I've
ever been
All the people down there /Livin' for their whisky, wine, and gin
I heard
a pistol shoot/Yeah and it was a .44
Somebody killed a crap shooter cause he didn't/Shake,
rattle, and roll
Hey hey hey hey/Alley's the roughest place I've ever been
All the people
down there /Killin' for their whisky, wine, and gin
I saw a cop standing/ With his hand
on his gun
He said "this is a raid, boy/ Nobody run"
Hey hey hey hey/Alley's the roughest
place I've ever been
Yeah they took me away from Alley/Lord they took me right back to the
pen.
