And on this date in 1929 somebody shot me in New York City just to watch me die.
Four guys done approached me,
one of them had gun
we spoke for just a second
then started all the fun.
Yeah, Four shots were fired
I was hit in my front and side
A cabby rushed me to the hospital
and that is where I died.
The guys who killed me
never did no time
A cop who said he knew me
claimed I was deep in crime.
Sure I had a record
I never said I was square
and I ended up a statistic
of Prohibition gang warfare.
"He must have done something. They don't kill you for nothing." - Chicago Gangster Ted Newberry. Rubbed out January 7, 1933
