[instrumental intro]

[verse 1]
yeah, mama and papa told me
i was crazy to stay
i was a f-g in new york
i was g-y in l.a
so i saved my money
and i took the train
wherever i go
they just treat me the same

[refrain]
when the whip comes down
when the whip comes down, yeah
when the whip comes down
when the whip comes down
hey

[verse 2]
yeah, i go to 53rd street
and they spit in my face
but i’m learning the ropes
yeah, i’m learning the trade
the east river truckers
are churning with trash
i’ve got so much money
but i spend it so fast

[refrain]
when the whip comes down
when the whip comes down
when the whip comes down
when the whip comes down

when the sh-t hits the fan
i’ll be sitting on the can
when the whip comes down
check it out

[guitar solo 1]

[refrain]
yeah, when the whip comes down, yeah
when the whip comes down, yeah
when the whip comes down, yeah
when the whip comes down, yeah

i’ve been running this town
i’ve been running this town, yeah

[verse 3]
yeah, i go to 53rd street
and they spit in my face
but i’m learning the ropes
yeah, i’m learning the trade
i’m filling the need, i’m filling the hole
but my mama’s so glad i [?] on the door

[refrain]
when the whip comes down
when the whip comes down
when the whip comes down
when the whip comes down, yeah

when the sh-t hits the fan
i’ll be sitting on the can
when the whip comes down

[guitar solo 2]

[refrain]
when the whip comes down, yeah
when the whip comes down, yeah
when the whip comes down, yeah
when the whip comes down

and in this town
when the whip comes down
ah, yeah

[guitar solo 3]
