I got a lawyer at the edge of town
He's the only one that'll never let me down
He's the only friend that I've ever had
The eyes I look right into when the weather's turning bad
So if you get back to the city honey
And you need a place to stay
Meet me with my friend Harry
The only one you'll ever need
If you get back to the city honey
And you need a place to stay
Meet me with my friend Harry
The greatest deal you'll ever see
There's a dirty case on my back
Boy, a heavy loan on my shoulders
But my lawyer's dressed in black
Looking in the eyes of the beholder
I'll meet my lawyer at the break of dawn
To meet the final hours, when the hammer hits I'll be gone
So if you get back to the city honey
And you need a place to stay
You can clean the mud off your hands
Break your chains and start another day
If you get back to the city honey
And you need a place to stay
You can clean the mud off your hands
Break your chains and start another day
Somebody might catch you on your run
You better run on before the sun goes down
So if you get back to the city honey
And you need a place to stay
Listen to my friend Harry
He'll wash your sins away
If you get back to the city honey
And you need a place to stay
Meet me with my friend Harry
He'll beat the case and set you free
