Cold Blood

i got a girl
she only puts out water
in the night
in the day
and in the morning
wakes me up
man i shake her to the bone
to calm her down
to stop the mournin

got a heart that only fills me up with
cold blood
i got a brain that only fills me with
confusion
oh, lord

got some time
and i fill it up with lies
that i repeat to myself
to keep on a'goin
got a life
man, it's filled up with the sorrow
of a thousand other men with
sins atonin

got a heart that only fills me up with
cold blood
i got a brain that only fills me with
dilusions
oh, lord
my lord
oh, lord

got a bed
i put the bottle down
but still it calls me
from down the hall
and up the stairs
says, c'mon let's go around
and when i go it takes me
all the way

i got a heart that only fills me up with
cold blood
i got a brain that never give me no
solutions
oh, lord

got some cash
i borrowed from a man
that didn't know
he was a'lendin
held him dear
man, i held that money near
it disappeared
just blew off in the wind

i got a heart that only fills me up with
cold blood
got a brain that only fills me with
dilusions
oh, lord
my lord
oh, lord

now my girl
she fills me up with water
in the night
in the day
and in the mornin
shakes me up
man, and it wakes me to the bones
it's not enough
to stop the mournin
got a heart that only pumps me full of
cold blood
got a brain that only fills me with
confusion
oh, lord
my lord
