Biografia:
A formação do grupo se deu em Minneapolis (terra também de Hüsker Dü e Soul Asylum) em 1979 quando Paul Westerberg (guitarra, vocal), Tommy Stinson (baixo), Bob Stinson (guitarra) e Chris Mars (bateria) se reuniram pela primeira vez no porão da casa dos irmãos Stinson. Reza a lenda que o primeiro show foi um desastre, uma verdadeira baderna, farra e bebedeira. A banda ainda usava o nome The Impediments e após a apresentação, o promotor daquele show sentenciou “Vocês nunca mais vão tocar nessa cidade de novo!”.

Sweat poured down his brow

If it's a hood they want, It's a hood they'll get
F Eb
This time he's ready, and set

Guzzled half a Colt

That was sitting on a dryer
Eb Bb
In an old laundromat
Gm Eb
What do you think about it
Eb (x1)
Eb Bb
When he was through he put the bottle in a jacket
F Eb
With six more from the rack
Eb (x1)
Eb Bb
Stumbled into the alley for some fun and
Gm Eb
Some money And some crackerjack
Eb (x2)
[Chorus 1]
Gm
Wipe that goddamn smile off face
Eb
I'll blow a hole your wife can't mend
F
Stuck my gun into his ribs
Eb
I'm glad I left the bullets where I did
Gm
Just don't say nothing
Eb
Don't say nothing
F F Eb Eb

Walked down the street

Snow is falling down

Twenty bucks he took, Left one buck

Bruce Springsteen

Getting his hair curled

Hanging out the clothes

I'll shoot your head and rip that chest
Eb
You can move in it, just be my guest
Gm
Wipe that motherfucker off that
Eb
I own that Cadillac
F Eb
God what did I do
[Ending]
Gm
A girl I haven't seen in years
Eb
Waved to me, I held my tears
F
She thought my shirt it must have been stuffed
Eb Eb
It's hard to wave in handcuffs
