Shakedown - Bob Seger

No matter what you think you pulled

You’ll find it’s not enough

No matter who you think you know

You won’t get through

It’s a given L.A. law

Someone’s faster on the draw

No matter where you hide

I’m coming after you, you

No matter how the race is run

It always ends the same

Another room without a view

Awaits downtown

You can shake me for a while

Live it up in style

No matter what you do

I’m going to take you down

Shakedown, breakdown, take down

Everybody wants into the crowded line

Breakdown, take down

You’re busted

Let down your guard, honey

Just about the time you’re thinkin' it’s alright

Breakdown, take down

You’re busted (oh, oh, uh)

This is a town where everyone

Is reaching for the top

This is a place where

Second best will never do

It’s okay you want to shine

But once you step across that line

No matter where you hide

I’m coming after you

Shakedown, breakdown, take down

Everybody wants into the crowded line

Breakdown, take down

You’re busted

Shakedown, breakdown, honey

Just about the time you’re thinking it’s alright

Breakdown, take down

You’re busted

Oh, busted

Oh oh

Shakedown (breakdown), breakdown (takedown), takedown

Everybody wants into the crowded line

Breakdown (take down), takedown (shakedown)

You’re busted (busted)

Shakedown (breakdown), breakdown (take down), honey

Just about the time you’re thinking it’s alright

Breakdown (take down), takedown (shakedown)

You’re busted

Shakedown, breakdown, take down

Everybody wants into the crowded line

Breakdown, take down

You’re busted

Let down your guard, honey

Just about the time you’re thinking it’s alright

Breakdown, take down

Oh, you’re busted

Shakedown, breakdown, take down

Everybody wants into the crowded line

Breakdown, take down

You’re busted

Let down your guard, honey

Just about the time you’re thinking it’s alright
