The room was dark, it looked like someone had to get out fast A window open by the fire escape How long have you been following this guy, the bellboy asked Not long enough, 'cause we got here too late And everybody wants another piece of the pie today, he said You gotta watch the ones who always keep their hands clean
Chorus: It's the big heat, there's someone followin' you It's the big heat, step aside, we're comin' through
Well, we followed him from tuscon, ended up in baton rouge We trailed him with information by A woman he knew in barstow that would like to see him dead That was four weeks ago c cwell, maybe five And everybody wants another piece of the pie today, she said You gotta watch the ones who always keep their hands clean.
Chorus repeat x2
