Just A Job To Do Lyrics

    It's no use saying that it's alright, it's alright.
    But where were you after midnight, midnight.
    Heard a bang, bang, bang; down they go
    It's just a job you do
    Cos the harder they run, and the harder they fall.
    I'm coming down hard on you.

    Now no-one saw what you looked like, what you looked like
    Like a stranger you came out of the night, out of the night
    Cos someone put the word on you, and i hope my aim is true.

    Cos i got a name, and i got a number, i gotta line on you
    I got a name, and i got a number, i'm coming after you

    Don't keep saying that it's alright, it's alright,
    It seems you went just a little too far this time
    Heard a bang bang bang, and down you go,
    It's just a job i do,
    Cos the harder you run the harder you fall,
    I'm coming down hard on you, hard on you - i hope my aim is true.

    I got a name, and i got a number, i got a line on you
    I got a name, and i got a number, and i'm coming after you

    Keep running, keep running; city to city
    Even if you're innocent,
    You can cause too much embarrassment
    And though your heart is breaking,
    And you know there's no mistaking.
    Cos you feel your life line breaking (keep running, keep running)
    You can feel your hands are shaking (keep running, keep running)
    And no-one answers the telephone
    You can never never ever go home alone
    And though your heart is aching
    And you know there's no mistaking.
    The footsteps close behind.

    Now don't pretend that you sleep at night, but sleep tight
    And can't you feel that the time is right, it's alright.
    Heard a bang bang bang, and down you go
    Oh no-one really cares
    Cos the harder you run, and the harder you fall.
    I'm coming down hard on you, hard on you - i'm hoping that my aim is
    True.

    I got a name, and i got a number, i got a line on you
    I got a name, and i got a number, i'm coming after you

    I got a name, and i got a number, i got a line on you
    I got a name, and i got a number, i got a job to do.
