Down the Limbo, Limbo the law

Your mama says to tell you, don't come home no more

Since they ain't got no room in the county hole

Gonna get wild make like rock 'n' roll



Down the Limbo, Limbo the law

Your mama says to tell you, don't come home no more

Since they ain't got no room in the county hole

Gonna get wild make like rock 'n' roll



Freedom Town or Mariel

Out the frying pan straight to Hell

In the papers shadows on the screen

Itchy finger trigger easy teens



Take you off just for fun

Sweet sixteen magazine and gun

Surfboard on the new crime wave

Playground street corner and grave



Jungle's jangle, intersection rock

The wind could blow these boys off the block

Crosstown junction where the cops don't stop

The heavy crew hangs out at the coffee shop



The beats are fresh, they're feeling fine

Ex-army automatic blasted down the line



Down the Limbo, Limbo the law

Your mama says to tell you, don't come home no more

Since they ain't got no room in the county hole

Gonna get wild make like rock 'n' roll



Down the Limbo, Limbo the law

Your mama says to tell you, don't come home no more

Since they ain't got no room in the county hole

Gonna get wild make like rock 'n' roll



Learned to speak from a gangster reel

Watch 'em murder rob and dope deal

Music makes you wanna shout

Kicking it live at the carryout



Colombians and ye oh think they got it made

Chopping 'em out with a chainsaw blade

Go down to Limbo, Limbo the law

Mama say don't come home no more



Ice cool killers copy what they see

Welfare cherve lottery fantasy

Uzi nine millimeter speak

High tide leaves clean money on the beach



Society needs boys like this

Liberal minds sleep with ease

When the shooting starts turn a blind eye

Adios to another bad guy



Down the Limbo, Limbo the law

Your mama says to tell you, don't come home no more

Since they ain't got no room in the county hole

Gonna get wild make like rock 'n roll



Down the Limbo, Limbo the law

Your mama says to tell you, don't come home no more

Since they ain't got no room in the county hole

Gonna get wild make like rock 'n' roll



Down the Limbo, Limbo the law

Your mama says to tell you, don't come home no more



Down the Limbo, Limbo the law

Your mama says to tell you, don't come home no more



Down the Limbo, Limbo the law

Your mama says to tell you, don't come home no more



Down the Limbo, Limbo the law

Your mama says to tell you, don't come home no more



Down the Limbo, Limbo the law
