Lawyers, Guns and Money Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I went home with a waitress
The way I always do
How was I to know
She was with the Russians too?

[Verse 2]
I was gambling in Las Vegas
I took a little risk
Send lawyers, guns and money
To get me out of this

[Verse 3]
I'm an innocent bystander
And somehow I got stuck
Between a rock and a hard place
And I'm down on my luck

[Refrain]
Oh, I'm down on my luck
Yes, I'm down on my luck

[Verse 4]
I'm hiding in Honduras
I'm a desperate man
Send lawyers, guns and money
The shit has hit the fan
[Outro]
Coming back
Send lawyers, guns and money
Send lawyers, guns and money
Watch me now
Hurry Up!
Send lawyers, guns and money

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
