The Raid Lyrics - Graham Parker

Pre> 

Slow intro 

A d a e 

Where were you when the raid came? where were you when the raid came? 

A d a e d a 

Out of the window or on the floor. yeah, on the night of the raid 

A d 

I was just rolling up some real good black 

A e 

Knock on the door and the window cracked 

A d 

The ds just come to bust the fun 

A e 

Everybody scatter and run

I was jossing with the baby in the bathroom 

Hanging out the party with the coke spoon 

Somebody yelled hey my head's on fire 

Just can't take it no higher 

Hey, dealers from the north and dealers from the south 

Joints in the noses and joints in the mouth 

But the friction in the kitchen only wanted out 

On the night of the raid 

Somebody yelled help put that thing on me 

That's one man I wouldn't want to be 

If you said now I'm going to make it sing 

On the night of the raid 

Well the boys hit the wall like bowling balls 

Questioned them all like they had no balls 

Snow hit their noses like an avalanche 

On the night on the raid

Chorus (as inro except.) 

Where were you when the raid came? 

Where were you when the raid came? 

Out of the window or on the floor 

A 

Yeah, on the night of the raid 

Chorus repeat and fade /pre>
