'kid' Gloves Lyrics - Fresh Evidence - Rory Gallagher

Well, they sprung me out of Quentin, 

I'm back on the mob's payroll 

They can buy my body 

Sure they can't buy my soul. 

I'm working out of Stockton 

I''m weighing in at two -o -one 

But there's a man in the front row 

Sent down by the mob with a gun. 

For 'Kid Gloves', 'Kid Gloves', I'm back out on the street. 

'Kid Gloves', the master to the beat 

'Kid Gloves', I'll do anything but dive. 

We'll the bought me out of Quentin. 

They've gone and placed their bets. 

I've got to throw the fight 

Just to save my neck. 

Saying 'yes' to the set up 

Made me feel so cheap 

But the street felt so good 

Now I've only got myself to beat 

A deal is a deal 

But you know I just can't win 

The mob oughta know 

My conscience is wearing thin 

For 'Kid' Gloves, I'm back in the ring 

'Kid ' Gloves, I'll fight anything 

'Kid" Gloves, I'll do anything but dive. 

'Kid Gloves', I'm back on the street 

'Kid" Gloves the master to beat 

"Kid" Gloves, Ill do anything but cry, 

'Kid' Gloves, I'm back on my feet 

"Kid" Gloves, The master to beat 

"Kid" Gloves, I'll do anything but cry 

"Kid" Gloves, I'm back in the ring. 

"Kid Gloves, I'll fight anything 

"Kid Gloves" I'll do anything but dive 

Well, they burned me out of Quentin, 

They've gone and placed their bets 

I've got to throw a fight 

Just to save my neck. 

Saying yes to the set up 

Made me feel so cheap 

But the street felt so good 

Now I've only got myself to beat 

"Kid Gloves, I'm back out on the street 

"Kid' Gloves, the master to beat 

'Kid' Gloves, I'll do anything but dive 

'Kid' Gloves, I'm back in the ring 

"Kid" Gloves, I'll fight anything 

'Kid' Gloves, I'll do anything but cry 

"Kid Gloves, I'm faster on my feet 

"Kid Gloves, the master to beat 

'Kid" gloves, I'll do anything but dive
