1920s GANGSTER

1920s GANGSTER

Curses and damn what have I done? 
I fired a bullet from my smoking gun
So many things are swimming in my head 
As Jimmy Mac lay stone cold dead 

The judge sentenced me to a lifetime in jail 
I look back on that October day as an epic fail 
I took out Jimmy Mac and ended his life 
I had no thoughts about his family and wife 

This was not the only killing of Chicago 1920 
Murders and killings were many and plenty 
Before all you people start to moan and groan 
You have to remember my boss was Al Capone
