Foolkiller

Foolkiller - David Linx/Mose Allison

I was walking down a back street

Just the other night

I got a funny feeling

That things weren't right

I heard some heavy footsteps right behind

And I know it wasn't just my mind

The foolkiller's coming

Gettin' closer every day

Oh yes the foolkiller's coming

I'm gonna try to make my getaway

I've been living in this concrete anthill

Scraping and scrubbing for that dollar bill

Eight million people living on a brink

There ain't no time to stop and think

The foolkiller's coming

I do believe it's true

Well the foolkiller's coming

I think he got his eye on me and you

If you never been a fool

Then you don't have to worry

You know you have

Better get in a hurry

Just to be on the safe side

Get yourself a place to hide

'Cause the foolkiller's coming

Gettin' closer every day

Oh yes the foolkiller's coming

I'm gonna try to make my getaway

Getaway
