Well, they knew you were coming down On the darkness at the edge of town And they came to steal the lightning from the sky Yeah, the push might just come to shove And your love might not be enough To free you from the fears that paralyse
Yet they used to love you for the way you sang your soul Now they've come to claim you through the night The ghosts have come to steal the light outta your eyes
But your mama and your wife Cuts your heart out with a knife And they left you for the dogs to lick your bones They made you cry the rain But they love you just the same Before your God, and the devil, took your soul
Tell me what did you bequeath To the girl with the freaky teeth Well, she shown you things she'd stolen from the queen She'll have your hearts desire As she danced back into the fire With the Holy Men who stole your tambourine
Yet they used to love you for the way you sang your soul Now they've come to claim you through the night The ghosts have come to steal the light outta your eyes
But your mama and your wife Cuts your heart out with a knife And they left you for the dogs to lick your bones They made you cry the rain But they love you just the same Before your God, and the devil, took your soul
But your mama and your wife Cuts your heart out with a knife And they left you for the dogs to lick your bones They made you cry the rain But they love you just the same Before your God, and the devil, took your soul Before your God, and the devil, took your soul Before your God, and the devil, took your soul Before your God, and the devil, took your soulTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
