The Who - Put The Money Down Lyrics

I got lost in the back streets, trying to get here tonight, The police were asking questions, they took me to the wrong place twice. I even lost my passport, and I forgot my name and town, But now I'm here by the water, put the money down. Before I walk on the water, Put the money down, down, down, There are bands killing chickens, My hero's getting pushed around, 'round, 'round. I don't know if I trust you as you try to shoot me down, Before I walk on the water, Put the money down, down, down, Put the money down. It was a beautiful day in Columbus when the fences fell But the five loaves and the fishes ain't going to be much help, I got a hungry juggler here who wants to be at the head, Before he walks the water he wants his bread. Take a glass of that light brown ale and a purple pill, If the air don't get you too sure as hell the pill will, Oh, mommy, mommy, please may I go downtown? He's gonna walk on the water, Put the money down, Put it down, before I walk on the water, Put the money down, down, down. There are bands killing chickens, My hero's getting pushed around, round, round, I don't know if I trust you as you try to shoot me down, I'm gonna walk on the water, Put the money down, down, down, down, down, Put the money down. In a tin cup. The Who Lyrics Put The Money Down Lyrics
