Continental Op Lyrics - Defender - Rory Gallagher

There's a body in the bay 

The cops are taking it away 

They said this case was closed 

It only shows you that never know 

 

So who they gonna get 

When the troubles got to stop 

Here's my card 

I'm the Continental Op 

 

Jane Doe in the bay 

Now that's exhibit 'A' 

Bloodstains on the dress of the millionairess 

But I saw you leavin' town 

I'm gonna have to track you down 

 

Just like a hound 

You slipped through the web 

And you might have dodged the Feds 

But who they gonna get when you've outfoxed the cops 

 

Here's my number 

I'm the Continental Op 

Call the agency, we never close 

First consultation is free 

Check my reputation, check my pose 

 

But first check my fee 

There's a menace on the streets 

Offering infants sweets 

Don't give this man a ride 

Lock your car from the inside 

 

He's suspect No. 1 

But I guess his race is run 

He left a set of prints 

He's not as smart as he thinks 

 

'Cause who they gonna get 

When the trouble's gotta stop 

Here's my card 

I'm the Continental Op 

 

There's a body in the bay 

The cops have taken it away 

They say this case was closed 

It only shows that you never know 

 

Bruises 'round the neck 

When they did a body check 

I saw you leaving town 

I'll track you down like a hound 

Who they gonna get when you've outfoxed the cop 

 

Here's my card 

I'm the Continental Op 

Yeah, who they gonna get 

When you've out foxed they cops 

 

Here's my badge 

I'm the Continental Op
