The Beltones Ain't no Life Lyrics:
Thought I'd get a little out of my tree, I didn't
know how far I'd get. Took a look in the mirror,
but I couldn't find the strength to spit. Took a
dive in the water of life, and believe me you I
went for a swim. And by the time the rollers
finally pulled me over, I knew I'd take a ride
with them.

[Chorus:]
So slap the cuffs on buddy, help yourself to my
money. I wish I had more to give but you see I'm
kinda strapped right now. Yeah slap the cuffs on
buddy, I can see you think it's funny. And could
you take your foot off my neck for a second so I

can peel my face off the ground.

Getting thick, a little big for my shoes, got to
thinking I was big jim slade. Some thought-he-was
with a chip on his shoulder pulled the pin on this
hand grenade. Made him acquainted with a brick
wall, it's tough to whistle when you look that
way. But the man from the law came and broke me in
the balls and now I'm counting out the months and
days.

[Chorus]

Hey man I'm out now, come pick me up and we'll go
get a drink. Yeah I'm out now, cross our fingers
we don't end up in the clink. I'm out now, I'll
step a little more light this time. I'm staying
out forever, there ain't no life in a life of
crime.
