Too Much Edward G

Too much Edward G You dirty rat James Cagney Mae West Chicago gangland in her heyday Portrayed with beautiful dames Singing seductive songs, wearing mink, diamonds, slinky satin Belonging to their men I was almost asleep one night When I heard a car chasing me down an alley. I turned and saw it; and was terrified. I knew it was a past life memory Also the mobsters in the car were after me. Snitches get stitches. My heart had never beat this fast. They were gaining. I turned down an alley. Heard the car stop. Terrified, I was looking for an out. Hid behind a trash can. Someone fished me out Threw me down. I saw two men in shadow above me. One leaned down and I felt a knife Cut my throat from side to side. I knew I deserved it, so I closed my eyes

The trouble is, I am running out of "Highway to Heaven" with Michael Landon and Victor French. They only made about 112 of them.
