I wake up with my children | |
Right around the crack of noon | |
And I do good like a good daddy should | |
Till the devil rolls out that moon | |
Once that whiskey hits my lips | |
It opens up | |
Pandora's box | |
And I start a lyin and a smoking and a fightin | |
Getting crazy as a white tailed fox. | |
My eyes start burnin wild and red | |
Two horns cut thru the top of my head | |
My teeth get jagged, my tongue gets sharp, | |
Cold neon blood starts a pumpin to my heart | |
My hands get frisky, with a mind of their own, | |
My legs start walkin me anywhere but home | |
And I'm a double talking, chicken-lickin | |
Meaner than the dickens sick and wicked | |
Hole digging pickin son of a gun, | |
And I'll love you like the devil, bite you | |
Like a snake and then forsake and break | |
Everything | |
I don't take before | |
I'm done Most people who know me, say | |
I'm as nice as a guy could be. | |
That's all fine cuz most of the time | |
They never get to see the real me. “ | |
He ain't got a bad bone in his body†| |
Is how they talk about me back home, | |
But here my dark side is unable to hide | |
And you don't want to see my bad bone. | |
I ‘m mean when | |
I'm lonesome, | |
I'm angry when | |
I'm high, | |
But I'll chase that nightmare until | |
I die. |
I wake up with my children | |
Right around the crack of noon | |
And I do good like a good daddy should | |
Till the devil rolls out that moon | |
Once that whiskey hits my lips | |
It opens up | |
Pandora' s box | |
And I start a lyin and a smoking and a fightin | |
Getting crazy as a white tailed fox. | |
My eyes start burnin wild and red | |
Two horns cut thru the top of my head | |
My teeth get jagged, my tongue gets sharp, | |
Cold neon blood starts a pumpin to my heart | |
My hands get frisky, with a mind of their own, | |
My legs start walkin me anywhere but home | |
And I' m a double talking, chickenlickin | |
Meaner than the dickens sick and wicked | |
Hole digging pickin son of a gun, | |
And I' ll love you like the devil, bite you | |
Like a snake and then forsake and break | |
Everything | |
