Gumshoe Andy I was high on cocaine, I was down on luck Was swimming laps in whisky, boy, I could feel you catching up Hey Gumshoe Andy, you're going down with me When you've got me, I will finally be free
Well, I lost you back in Richmond and I rode to Jacksonville When that train holed up, boy, and just for thrills I ate some white cross, a double shot Snort of methamphetamine When you've got me, I will finally be free
Well, I walked on down to Baldwin and boy, it was dead luck
I flew a sign for money, made just enough to get drunk Hey Gumshoe Andy, you're going down with me When you've got me, I will finally be free
I found a train to Florence and I saddled that thing up And I slept there by your station for a whole damn month Hey Gumshoe Andy, when will you catch me? When you've got me, I will finally be free When you've got me, I will finally be free
