I was out driving
Just a taking it slow
Looked at my tank
It was reading low
Pulled in a Exxon station
Out on Highway One
Held up without a gun
Held up without a gun
Some damn fool with a guitar
Walkin' down the street
Ain't got nowhere to go
Ain't got nothing to eat
Man with a cigar says
"Sign here son";
Held up without a gun
Held up without a gun
Now it's a sin
And it oughta be a crime
You know it happens buddy
All the time
Try to make a living
Try to have a little fun
Held up without a gun
Held up without a gun
Just a taking it slow
Looked at my tank
It was reading low
Pulled in a Exxon station
Out on Highway One
Held up without a gun
Held up without a gun
Some damn fool with a guitar
Walkin' down the street
Ain't got nowhere to go
Ain't got nothing to eat
Man with a cigar says
"Sign here son";
Held up without a gun
Held up without a gun
Now it's a sin
And it oughta be a crime
You know it happens buddy
All the time
Try to make a living
Try to have a little fun
Held up without a gun
Held up without a gun
