[Verse 1]
[C]When
Willie met Ronnie he was runnin' up a track
He was bent down, burned out,
carryin' a sack
Come on boy, you got to stop
and help me some
And keep this money hidden
when the police [G]come

[Verse 2]
[F]Ronnie was shiverin' and
makin' funny sounds
He was [Bbm]lookin' like a fox
That was [Bb]runnin' from the hounds
[G]Sure little buddy, I can lighten up your load

[Verse 3]
You [G]half it up, I'll hit it up,
I'll take it down the [C]road

[Verse 4]
[C]Never had a better combination
been planned
'Cause Willie was a roadie with
a rock 'n' roll band
They were heads back, celebratin',
drinkin' moonshine
Heads down,

[Verse 5]
here we go across another state line
[F]Tanked up and bullet proof
They couldn't give a monkey's
[Bb]Damn if he didn't hide
the money in a drum case
[G]Pack 'em up, hit em up,
do another show

[Verse 6]
The rob[C]ber and the roadie got
a long way to go
[Bb]

[Verse 7]
[G]
Willie and [C]Ronnie
[F][G]

[Verse 8]
[C]Anytime they wanted they would
pull another job
Anywhere they found a place
And it was fat enough to rob
If Ronnie saw the police he
would make a little sign

[Verse 9]
Then [C]Willie stuck the money
in the band's back line
In [F]the main racks, bass stacks
Anywhere he thought it could
Be [Bb]hidden out of sight

[Verse 10]
Until the [Bb]finished out in Hollywood
[G]Split it down the middle
When they took it out the sound
[C]The robber and the roadie got
enough to go around
[Bb]

[Verse 11]
[G]
Willie and [C]Ronnie[F][G]
The robber and [C]the[F]
[Bb][G]
road[C]ie

[Verse 12]
Forty seven days and they [C]had
only one to go
When the telegram arived
To say the band wouldn't show
The crowd was getting' nasty and
it turned into a rage

[Verse 13]
[C]The bottles and the bodies
started coverin' the stage
Then the [F]cops came running in
And breaking up the riotin'
[Bb]When they saw the money falling

[Verse 14]
[Bb]Out the back of [G]everything
Hey little buddy think it's
time to run and duck
The robber and the roadie could

[Verse 15]
be runnin' out of luck
[C]Willie and Ronnie had
to skip it out of town
They were sittin' by the highway
like Jackson Browne
They were stickin' out their thumbs
In the middle of the night

[Verse 16]
[C]When they saw the car comin'
with the spinnin' red light
[F]Wide eyed,
tongue tied feelin' pretty stranded
[Bb]No use in runnin' they were
caught red handed
[G]Pull 'em in, lock 'em up,
put 'em in a row
The robber and the roadie got
nowhere to go
[Bb]

[Verse 17]
[G]
Willie and [C]Ronnie[F][G]
The robber and [C]the [Bb]roadie

[Verse 18]
We got state po[G]lice and the [C]FBI
Willie and Ronnie
You get [F]a big reward
If [G]you can make these boy's
mamas [C]cry
The robber and the roadie
We got the na[Bb]tional [G]guard
and the bear in the [C]sky

[Verse 19]
Willie and [C]Ronnie
You get a [F]big reward if you can [G]make
these mothers [C]cry
