Lynyrd Skynyrd Lyrics for Song: It's a Killer
 Lyrics for Album: Lynyrd Skynyrd 1991 [1991]
 
 
 
 26261>Lynyrd Skynyrd - It's a Killer
 
 
 
 There's a rumour goin' 'round on the backside of town
 
 Jake is out to get some revenge
 
 Has fire in his eyes since his brother died
 
 Shot down by a so-called friend
 
 
 
 For a fifty dollar gram is what the neighbors say
 
 Drugs had control of his life
 
 Caught up on crack you're tryin' to think back
 
 The devil had him hooked you could see it in his eyes
 
 It's a killer
 
 
 
 There's a cold house at the corner of the street
 
 The kids come and go there at night
 
 Jerry drove up in front of the house
 
 Somebody pulled out a knife
 
 Jerry freaked out and went for his gun
 
 Shot him right between the eyes
 
 All he ever wanted was a twenty dollar high
 
 But now he's locked up for the rest of his life
 
 
 
 (chorus)
 
 It's a killer there's no way out baby once your in
 
 It's a killer steal from your family
 
 Then you'll turn on your friends
 
 It's a killer It can happen to you
 
 
 
 So don't you never, never give in
 
 It's a killer
 
 
 
 The neighborhood I used to call home
 
 These days it's lookin' like a war zone
 
 Unemployment on the rise but the black market thrives
 
 Money just keeps changin' hands
 
 The laws are gettin' tough sometimes it's not enough
 
 To satisfy supply and demand
 
 
 
 Trouble breaks out there's fightin' in the streets
 
 Bullets flyin' all around
 
 An innocent child caught in the line of fire
 
 All because there weren't enough drugs to go around
 
 
 
 (repeat chorus)
 
 
 
 (repeat chorus)
