44 Special - The Felice Brothers

Got a Special number 44

It’s a pretty little number, keep it by the door

My baby loves it she holds it in her palm

She really likes the metal, says it keeps her calm

She really likes the metal, says it keeps her calm

I got an apartment, it’s down on Cherry Street

It ain’t much to look at but the rent is cheap

Sleazy landlord in a chequered shirt

He always got a briefcase full of paperwork

Roly Poly lived above my bed

He had a bad obsession for sweet gingerbread

He went downtown and he bought her a rose

He whipped his little lady til she baked a loaf

Got a Special number 44

It’s a pretty little number, keep it by the door

Late in the evening when I take my rest

I keep it laying with me up and down my breast
