Lyrics

Thirteenth Bar Blues
Sept 1, 1991  (C) 1991 TK MAJOR


It was the thirteenth day 
of the thirteenth month
The clock on the wall 
had just struck 13 o'clock 
It was the thirteenth bar 
on the thirteenth block
I had me twelve beers 
and ordered one more for luck


Thirtteen nightsticks 
and thirteen cops
thirteen minutes of gettin beat up
13 bones broke 
in 13 ways
the judge said
Son, I'll give you 13 hundred Dollars 
or 13 days...
