My daddy was a bank robber


Artist: Farkas Pungur - Brisbane AU
Key Signature: F minor
Time Signature: 4/4
Artist's Description
A raw story of growing up abandoned by an absent father and overworked mother, shaped by poverty and street life. While his father wastes life chasing quick money and ends up in prison, the son breaks the cycle—building success through hard work, resilience, travel, and loyalty to his mother.

funk and soul musical styles, with strong elements of R&B and blaxploitation-era orchestral groove, signature of the 1970s groove.

Here’s a breakdown of its key stylistic traits:
• Funk foundation: Prominent syncopated bass line, wah-wah guitar riffs, and tight rhythmic grooves.
• Soul influence: Smooth vocal delivery and expressive phrasing by Isaac Hayes.
• Orchestral arrangement: Use of strings, horns, and layered percussion to create a cinematic feel.
• Rhythmic innovation: Complex, driving drum patterns characteristic of 1970s funk.
• Cultural context: As the theme for the film Shaft (a 1971 blaxploitation movie), it helped define the sound of the genre—urban, stylish, and assertively cool.
• • The instrumental groove centers around an F minor vamp, built from the chord progression Fm7 – B♭m7 – C7, a common funk pattern.
• • Hayes’ vocal lines mostly hover around the F minor pentatoni

(Verse 1)
My daddy was never home
The man was always gone,
My mama never told me
But Maybe I never meant to be

She was working all day long
Everything I did was just Wrong
I never got a kiss or a hug
I become a thief and a thug

The street was my all-time teacher
The punches were my midnight Preacher
I learned the life the hardest way
I didn't care what everyone say

I made my life without parents
I made my wealth without talents
I am a self-made human beings
I'm not afraid of anyone and anything's

(Chorus)
My daddy was a bank robber
He tried to get clean and sober
He tried to rob a bank with his friend
He lost his freedom with the gang

He didn't want to work hard
He couldn't walk the hard yard
He wanted to get rich quick and fast
He is just a flash of memory in the past

(Verse 2)
Behind bars he spent his young years
My mum couldn't drop even one tears
He was never nice to anyone ever
He was meant to be a loser and a quitter

I live my days the way I make it
As the opportunities come, I will take it
I am proud of who I am and what I do
I plan, I work hard and I pursue

I am a man of my own
From poverty to wealth, I outgrown
I travel the world and meet new faces
I have visited the world's best places

I avoid to be the man like my father was
But I help my mum just because
She doesn't remember who I am
But she would like me, the way I am

(Chorus)
My daddy was a bank robber
He tried to get clean and sober
He tried to rob a bank with his friend
He lost his freedom with the gang

He didn't want to work hard
He couldn't walk the hard yard
He wanted to get rich quick and fast
He is just a flash of memory in the past

My daddy was a bank robber
He tried to get clean and sober
He tried to rob a bank with his friend
He lost his freedom with the gang

He didn't want to work hard
He couldn't walk the hard yard
He wanted to get rich quick and fast
He is just a flash of memory in the past
