Bob Seger Shakedown Lyrics

No matter what you think you pull
You'll find it's not enough
No matter who you think you know
You won't get through

It's a given L.A. law
Someone's faster on the draw
No matter where you hide
I'm comin' after you

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 gonna 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're thinkin' it's alright
Breakdown, takedown, you're busted

This is a town where everyone
Is reaching for the top
This is a place where second best
Will never do
It's O.K. to want to shine
But once you step across that line
No matter where you hide
I'm comin' after you

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

Oh, busted!

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

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