In a car, going home, getting wasted Some cat stops and starts to make a crime He said: 'Son, I'm afraid I must bust you' 'For getting spaced I just must waste your time'. Only a roach Won't keep us from crossing no ocean? So they hounded us down to the station And said just how sorry they were And they spoke of the good in just drinking And drinking's all they're good for. I said . Only a roach Won't keep us from crossing no ocean? And the judge, well he just would not listen But then listening ain't what he's paid for 'Cause he's paid for just gettin' his ass sore Forever and ever more. Said: 'You pay through the nose' 'For counsul and the clothes that you wore' Ah, keep playing. Only a roach Won't keep us from crossing no ocean? I said . Only a roach Won't keep us from crossing no ocean?
