GIMME YOUR MONEY PLEASE As recorded by Bachman-Turner Overdrive (From the 1973 Album BACHMAN-TURNER OVERDRIVE) [Intro]                        N.. [Verse 1] I was walking on down the alley When a face I’ve never seen Came forth from deep in the darkness And his mouth came on real mean And I saw that he’d been liquored And he staggered up to -- you know -- he staggered up to his feet And he said "Boy you’d better move real slow And gimme your money please." He said "Gimme your money please." [Chorus] Wasn’t that strange Wasn’t that strange indeed Wasn’t that strange Wasn’t that strange indeed He said "Gimme your money please." He said "Gimme your money please."    [Verse 2] Being born and raised in New York There ain’t nothing you won’t see ’Cause the streets are filled with bad goings-on And you know that’s no place to be But my car broke down in the evening You know it just stopped stone cold Stopped stone cold in the street And a dirty mean man with shot glass eyes He said "Gimme your money please." He said "Gimme your money please." [Chorus] Wasn’t that strange Wasn’t that strange indeed Wasn’t that strange Wasn’t that strange indeed He said "Gimme your money please." He said "Gimme your money please." [Solo]       x10 [Verse 3] Being born and raised in New York There ain’t nothing you won’t see ’Cause the streets are filled with bad goings-on And you know that’s no place to be But my car broke down in the evening You know it just stopped stone cold Stopped stone cold in the street And a dirty mean man with shot glass eyes He said "Gimme your money please." He said "Gimme your money please." [Chorus] Wasn’t that strange Wasn’t that strange indeed Wasn’t that strange Wasn’t that strange indeed He said "Gimme your money please." He said "Gimme your money please." He said "Gimme your money please." He said "Gimme your money please." (Awww!) [Outro]        x14

La chanson raconte l'histoire d'un homme qui, alors qu'il se promène dans une ruelle, se retrouve face à un individu menaçant et désorienté, visiblement ivre. Ce dernier lui demande de manière insistante de lui donner son argent. Le protagoniste évoque également son expérience de la vie à New York, pleine de dangers et de situations inattendues, illustrant ainsi la violence et la dureté des rues. Le contexte se situe dans une ville où la criminalité et les comportements inappropriés sont monnaie courante, et cela accentue la tension de la rencontre. Les difficultés de la vie urbaine, comme les problèmes de voiture, ajoutent un élément de vulnérabilité au récit, rendant la situation encore plus stressante pour celui qui se retrouve dans cette situation délicate.
