Bob Seger - Shakedown

No matter what you think you hold, you'll find it's not enough
No matter who you think you know, you won't get through
It's a given LA law, someone's faster on the draw
No matter where you hide, I'm coming after you
Yep

No matter how the race is run, it always ends the same
Another room without a view awaits downtown
You can shake me for a while, live it up in style
No matter what you do, I'm goin' to take you down

Shakedown, breakdown, takedown
Everybody wants into the crowded line
Breakdown, takedown, you're busted
Let down your guard, honey
Just about the time you think that it's alright
Breakdown, takedown, you're busted

This is a town where everyone is reaching for the top
This is the place where second best will never do
It's OK to want to shine, but once you step across that line
No matter where you hide, I'm coming after you

Shakedown, breakdown, takedown
Everybody wants into the crowded line
Breakdown, takedown, you're busted
Shakedown, breakdown, honey
Just about the time you think that it's alright
Breakdown, takedown, you're busted

Oh, busted

Shakedown, breakdown, takedown
Everybody wants into the crowded line
Breakdown, takedown, shakedown, you're busted
Shakedown, breakdown, honey
Just about the time you think that it's all right
Breakdown, takedown, shakedown, you're busted

Shakedown, breakdown, takedown
Everybody wants into the crowded line
Breakdown, takedown, you're busted
Let down, your guard, honey
Just about the time you think that it's alright
Breakdown, takedown, oh, you're busted

Shakedown, breakdown, takedown
Everybody wants into the crowded line
Breakdown, takedown, you're busted

Let down your guard, honey
Just about the time you think that it's alright
Breakdown
