Couldn't stay very long
Hey, hey, hey

Alley's the roughest place I've ever been
All the people down there
Livin' for their whisky, wine and gin

Hey, hey, hey
Alley's the roughest place I've ever been
All the people down there
Killin' for their whisky, wine and gin
I saw a cop standing
With his hand on his gun
Said, "This is a raid, boy, now"
No, nobody run
Hey, hey, hey
Alley's the roughest place I've ever been
Yeah, they took me away from Alley
Lord, they took me right back to the pen
