You Should Have Wrote A Book

[Verse]
Three shots rang out from the flat roof of a neighboring building
As i dove and rolled I instinctively drew my .45
A galvanized steel garbage can buckled and fell bleeding
Milky water, probably saved my life
I emptied a clip in the direction of my would be assassins
Left a fist sized divot in the sandstone façade
I saw the chick run and another one I didn't recognize
I knew they wouldn't miss again
I better run if I want to get out of this town alive

[Chorus]
Dang, you should have wrote a book

[Verse]
I abandoned the Corvette in an alley in the bad side of Bombay
I knew in a half an hour the car'd be stripped and gone
Well the damn thing never ran the way it was supposed to anyway
And they've been tracking me since I left Saigon
When a coded message came over the two-way
Said the fat man's gonna jump but it didn't say when
I took the chick down on the outskirts of town
You know the bad guys always lose and the good guys always win

[Chorus]
Oh dang, you should have wrote a book
