Rory Gallagher - The Last Of Independants Lyrics
I caught the Red-Eye at midnightIn the nick of timeOn the seven four sevenAnd we soon were flying high.Lord, I had no time to loseThings were getting hotOnly I know where we stashed the lootThe mob wants to know the spot.They got the muscle in from ClevelandThe fire-power from DetroitThey missed me in New JerseyThough things got pretty tight.Caught my scent in RichmondAt the Hotel SavoyBut I got out the laundry shuteAnd went to Chicago, Illinois.I'm the Last of the IndependantsYeah, they're searching coast to coastOnly I know where we hid the lootEleven years ago.I caught the Red-Eye at midnightIn the nick of timeOn the seven four sevenWe soon were high and wide.The moon was laughing at me like it did not have a careBut I just smiled right back and said'You ain't going anywhere'.Well, I want out of the racketsAnd the numbers game'Cos when you cross the big bossYou only got yourself to blame.I won't sing like a canaryAnd I won't go naming names.I don't need police protectionI'll play it my own way.I'm the Last of the IndependantsWell, I play by my own rules.Yes, I'm the Last of the IndependantsThe Syndicate, well, it don't approve.Well, I'm the Last of the IndependantsWell, I got to keep on the move.Well, I'm the Last of the IndependantsWell, I got no time to loseTime to lose.
