Dirge

I can’t go downtown no more, no more
It’s your face I see plastered on every door
Don’t you tell me darling, that the fault is all my own
Don’t you tell me, don’t you tell me, “Leave my heart alone”

Woah, Woah, ooo

With a fifth in hand, I went to find the Lord
’Neath the shade of pines, where I found him once before
But the Devil met me first, charmed me in his way
He sang me his sweet song, and his whisper seemed to say

Woah, Woah, ooo

Almost home now I can see the light
Almost home just one more drink tonight
Look outside your window, baby blue
I’ve crashed my car and burned up just for you

And they’ll sing
Woah, Woah, ooo
Woah, Woah, ooo
