[Verse 1] Hands up, face up Make it quick, make it clean I run this room Like a loan with a mean streak My boys stay quiet But they know what to bring When I nod once They move like a machine [Pree-Chorus] No games, no bluff Just bags on the floor If you try to act bold We will settle the score Keep your voice low Keep your hands in sight 'Cause the piper came early And he wants it tonight [Chorus] Ma Baker Say the name, say the name Ma Baker You remember the flame Ma Baker When the doors swing wide Ma Baker You don't run, you slide (Ma Baker) (Ma Baker) [Verse 2] Notes in the satchel Deeds in the coat Anything shiny Gets packed up and towed One fool laughed Then the whole room froze Now he's staring at the ceiling With a lesson he knows I don't need much Just what is owed Then me and my sons Disappear in the smoke [Pre-Chorus] No games, no bluff Just bags on the floor If you try to act bold We will settle the score Keep your voice low Keep your hands in sight 'Cause the piper came early And he wants it tonight [Chorus] Ma Baker Say the name, say the name Ma Baker You remember the flame Ma Baker When the doors swing wide Ma Baker You don't run, you slide (Ma Baker) (Ma Baker) [Bridge] I taught them young How to move in a storm How to keep a straight face When the room turns cold Now the job is done And the cash is gone By the time you wake up We'll be miles from dawn [Final Chorus] Ma Baker Say the name, say the name Ma Baker You remember the flame Ma Baker When the doors swing wide Ma Baker You don't run, you slide (Ma Baker) (Ma Baker)
