Time you straightened right out

Creating problems in town

Rudy, a message to you

Rudy, a message to you

Stop your fooling around

Time you straightened right out

Better think of your future

Else you'll wind up in jail

Rudy, a message to you

Rudy, a message to you

Stop your messing around

Better think of your future

Time you straightened right out

Creating problems in town

Rudy, a message to you

Rudy, a message to you

Rudy, a message to you

Rudy, a message to you

On the route of the 19 Bus

Hear them sayin'

How you get a rude and a reckless?

Don't you be so crude and a feckless

You been drinking booze for breakfast

Rudy can't fail

So we reply

I know that my life make you nervous

But I tell you that I can't live in service

Like the doctor who was born for a purpose

Rudy can't fail

I went to the market

To realize my soul

Cause what I need

I just don’t have it

First they curse

Then they press me ‘til I hurt

We say Rudy can’t fail

We hear them sayin'

Now first you must cure your temper

Then you find a job in the paper

You need someone for a savior

Oh Rudy can't fail

We reply

Now we get a rude and a reckless

We been seen lookin' cool an' a speckless

We been drinking booze for breakfast

So Rudy can't fail

Okay

So where you wanna go today?

Hey boss man

You're looking pretty smart

In your chicken skin suit

You think you're pretty hot

In your pork pie hat

But Rudy can't fail

Look out, look out

Sky juice

10 cents a bottle!

Said, come and walk with me, come and walk one more mile.

Now for once in your life youre alone,

But you aint got a dime, theres no time for the phone.

Ive just got to get a message to you, hold on, hold on.

One more hour and my life will be through, hold on, hold on.

I told him Im in no hurry,

But if I broke her heart, wont you tell her Im sorry.

And for once in my life Im alone,

And Ive got to let her know just in time before I go.

Ive just go to get a message to you, hold on, hold on.

One more hour and my life will be through, hold on, hold on.

Well I laughed but that didnt hurt,

And its only her love that keeps me wearing this dirt.

Now Im crying but deep down inside,

Well I did it to him, now its my turn to die.

Ive just got to get a message to you, hold on, hold on.

One more hour and my life will be through, hold on, hold on.
