I was out driving

just a taking it slow

Looked at my tank

it was reading low

Pulled in a Exxon station

out on Highway One

Held up without a gun,

held up without a gun

Some damn fool with a guitar

walkin' down the street

ain't got nowhere to go

Ain't got nothing to eat

Man with a cigar says, "Sign here son"

Held up without a gun,

held up without a gun

Now it's a sin

and it oughta be a crime

You know it happens buddy

all the time

Try to make a living,

try to have a little fun

Held up without a gun,

held up without a gun
