Sally Was A Cop Lyrics - Big Station - Alejandro Escovedo

Instrumental Opening 

Sally was a cop, but now she's a soldier 

Another foot deep, another day older 

I used to be on top, now I just roll over 

I used to run hot, now I run a little colder 

Instrumental Break (2 Bars) 

They're marching up the streets, people hiding in their cupboards (wo-oh-oh-oh-oh) 

From the crooked politicos to the mercenary lovers (wo-oh-oh-oh-oh) 

The socialites and psychopaths are dancing with each other (wo-oh-oh-oh-oh) 

Sally was a cop, but now she's a soldier (wo-oh-oh-oh-oh) 

Instrumental Break (2 Bars) 

Shot in the face in the ditches of their gutters 

Thirty five bodies lying in the highway 

Children forced to dig the graves of their fathers 

Sally was a cop, but now she's a soldier 

Instrumental Break (2 Bars) 

They're marching up the streets, people hiding in their cupboards 

From the crooked politicos to the mercenary lovers 

Children forced to dig the graves of their fathers 

Sally was a cop, but now she's a soldier 

Instrumental Break (5 Bars then fade out)
