"Not A Gang" lyrics

"Not A Gang"

Out on the lawns when I was still younger
There's sidewalk dogs and harddog park in the sand

But I cannot forget all the eyes that I saw
And pass me a chip, take my worst sleeve full of pills
It's not a gang, I can't let you in

Pass me a chord and I'll sing it on tune
And since it's so hot that the ladies are peelin' up too
Oh, love is lazy on the window

The laundry's dry so they reel it on in
And I've just been outside so why all this hay way in
It's not a gang, I can't let you in
