[Verse 1]
[Am]Went down to Tin Pan Alley
See what was goin' on
Things was too hot down there
Couldn't stay very long
Hey [Dm]hey hey hey
Alley's the roughest place I've [Am]ever been
[Em]All the people down there
[Dm]Livin' for their whisky, wine, and gin
[Am][Dm][Am][Em]

[Verse 2]
[Am]I heard a woman scream
Yeah and I peeped through the door
Some cat was workin' on Annie with a
Lord with a two-by-four
Hey [Dm]hey hey hey
Alley's the roughest place I've [Am]ever been
[Em]All the people down there
[Dm]Livin' for their whisky, wine, and gin

[Verse 3]
[Am]I heard a pistol shoot
Yeah and it was a .44
Somebody killed a crap shooter
cause he didn't
Shake, rattle, and roll
Hey [Dm]hey hey hey

[Em]All the people down there
[Dm]Killin' for their whisky, wine, and gin

[Am]I hear a cop standing
With his hand on his gun
He said "this is a raid boy, now
Lord, nobody run"
Hey [Dm]hey hey hey
Alley's the roughest place I've [Am]ever been
[Em]Yeah they took me away from Alley
[Dm]Lord, they took me right back to the bed
[Am][Dm][Am][Bb][Am]
