Píseň: Last Gang In Town

Interpret:
Clash, The
Album:
Give 'Em Enough Rope
Everybody's looking for last gang in town 
You better watch out for they're all comin' around 


The sport of today is exciting 
The in crowd are into infighting 
When some punk sees some rock-olla 
It's rock and roll all over 
In every street and every station 
Kids fight like different nations 
And it's brawn against brain 
And it's knife against chain 
But it's all young blood 
Flowing down the drain 


The Crops hit the Stiffs 
An' the Spikes whipped the Quiffs 
They're all looking 'round 


For the last gang in town 


Meanwhile down in black town 
Those old soul rebels are haingin' around 
An' when some punk come alooking for sound 
Rastaferi goes to ground 
The white heart flipped his pocket dipped 
'Cos a black sharp knife never slips 
And they never say to one antoher 
That tomorrow we might kill our brothers 


Down from the edge of London 
The rockabily rebels came 
From another edge of London 
Skinhead gangs call out their name 
But not the Zydeco kids 
From the high rise 
Though they can't be recognized 
When you hear a cajun fiddle 
Then you're nearly in the middle 
Of the last gang in town
