Default Right side... lyrics

Here are the lyrics to right side which is one of my faves.
There are MANY mistakes and some of it don't make sence but english is only my second language. If you have other suggestions please post.....


Right Side Of Wrong

a friend of a friend needs a favour
no questions asked
there's not much more to say
me and the wife needn't money
we've got four kids all hungry
one on the way

slip these sweat socks in your shirt
And pray they think you're packing
be sure to keep your head down
don't look'em in the eye
and don't get fancy
mickey, we ain't jimmy cagney

look at me
let's do the job
let's get on tonight

chorus
I've got a half tank of gas
and if we run all the lights
we'll slip across the border
on the wrong side of right
and just like butch and sundance
we'll ride into the dawn
sipping whiskey, singing cowboy songs
on the right side of wrong

you picked one hell of a night
from the shore I see the skyline
and a couple of hours from now we're
gonna get out of this life
we'll stop for smokes, I brought a six-pack
we'll stop for "liquer" on the way back

hell we'll laugh ths off
keep your fingers crossed
it all goes well tonight

chorus

we'll make them "break"
they'll know our names
I'll need a friend that drives me up
and my makers of saint christopher
I'll talk to him when I go inside
I'll take that suitcase, get the cash
and we'll be gone before you know
wait until we tell the girls to "moon down"
to the golf of Mexico

solo


a friend of a friend needed a favour
life was just what happened
while we were busy making plans
never saw nothing that was a "running"
"I never meet a stills coming"
from the windshield of our oldsmobile
as the cops said show your hands

chorus

I must say that you've done a great job working this out. In my opinion in the 4th verse there should be :" me and wife we needed money" and also just before the solo there sould be " to the gulf of Mexico". But I may be wrong. English is also my second language. In some parts it still dosen;t make sense but buy generaly it seems to bo ok.
