BWell they closed down the auto plant in Mahwah late that month
Ralph went out lookin' for a job but he couldn't find Fnone
He came Bhome too drunk from mixin'Tanqueray and wine
He got a gun shot a night clerk now they Fcall him Johnny 9B9
Down in the part of town where when you hit a red light you don't stop
Johnny's wavin' his gun around and threatenin' to blow his Ftop
When an Boff duty cop snuck up on him from behind
Out in front of the Club Tip Top they slapped the Fcuffs on Johnny 9B9
Well the city supEplied a public defender but the Bjudge was Mean John Brown
He came into the courtroom and stared poor Johnny Fdown
Well the Bevidence is clear gonna let the sentence son fit the crime
Prison for 98 and a year and we'll call it Feven Johnny 9B9

A fistEfight broke out in the courtroom they had to Bdrag Johnny's girl away
His mama stood up and shouted Judge don't take my boy this Fway
Well Bson you got any statement you'd like to make
Before the bailiff comes to forFever take you aBway
Now judge judge I had debts no honest man could pay
The bank was holdin' my mortgage and they was takin' my house aFway
Now BI ain't sayin' that makes me an innocent man
But it was more 'n all this that Fput that gun in my Bhand
Well your honour I do believe I'd be better off dead
And if you can take a man's life for the thoughts that's in his Fhead
Then won't you sit Bback in that chair and think it over judge one more time
And let 'em shave off my hair and Fput me on that executionB line
