Well he was fueled by a lack
Drew inspiration from a need
So many problems to crack
And mouths to feed
Crooked was the path
And brazen was the walk
A cocky swagger, up the ladder
And could he ever talk

The last hurrah? Nah! I'd do it again
The Rascal King behind the bars or the one in front of them
The last hurrah? Nah! I'd do it again
The Rascal King behind the bars or the one in front of them

The love of God
And constant contradictions
With just a smile, wink and nod
What's stranger fact or fiction?
And never ceasing to amaze
On a regular basis
First hand into his pocket
Or first fist into the faces

And it's the
The last hurrah? Nah! I'd do it again
The Rascal King behind the bars or the one in front of them
The last hurrah? Nah! I'd do it again
The Rascal King behind the bars or the one in front of them

A legendary character
When? Only then
Where? Only there (I'd do it again)
A hero or a hooligan?

Pride or shame, it's all the same (I'd do it again)
Who's innocent and who's to blame? (I'd do it again)
Politics or just a game?
Well in the end they knew his name

The last hurrah? Nah! I'd do it again
It's he Rascal King behind the bars or the one in front of them
Well it's the last hurrah? Nah! I'd do it again
And it's the Rascal King behind the bars or the one in front of them
