Foolkiller - Johnny Rivers

I was walking down a back street

Just the other night

I got a funny feeling

That things weren’t right

I heard some heavy footsteps right behind

And I know it wasn’t just my mind

You know the foolkiller’s coming

Uh-huh, he gettin' closer every day

Don’t you know the foolkiller’s coming

I’m gonna try to make my getaway

I’ve been living in this concrete anthill

Scraping and scrubbing for that dollar bill

Eight million people living on a brink

There ain’t no time to stop and think

You know the foolkiller’s coming

Uh-huh, I do believe it’s true

Girl, I said the foolkiller’s coming

I think he got his eye on me and you

Now, if you never been a fool

Then you don’t have to worry

But if you have

You better get in a hurry

And just to be on the safe side

Get yourself a little place to hide

You know the foolkiller’s coming

Lord, I do believe it’s true

I see the foolkiller coming

And I know he got his eye on me and you

I’ve been living in this concrete anthill

I’m scraping and scrubbing for that dollar bill

Eight million people living on a brink

And there ain’t no time to stop and think

You know the foolkiller’s coming

Lord, he’s getting closer every day

Don’t you see the foolkiller coming

I gonna try to make my getaway

Now, if you never been a fool

Then you don’t have to worry

But if you have

You better get in a hurry

And just to be on the safe side

Seek yourself a little place to hide

You know, the foolkiller’s coming

Lord, I do believe it’s true

Can’t you see the foolkiller’s coming

I know he got his eye on me and you

Yeah, you know, the foolkiller’s coming, all right
