The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
Running to a hole like a bootlegging mouse in a roadside mountain hotel Well he cats in the corner got the guns and the speed but they’re too young to know how to sell Flags are flying high in the Eastern sky where the roads are all covered in sin Now I'm yelling at you like a banshee with blood all over my shins The only way to live is to love again or just burn out in love’s flame Music and words will kill me or save me once again Spending money like a rich kid Drinking like a camel's hump Lovin' you like a dead man or a writer stuck in a slump Well I wrote this song on the back of a bag that once held a bottle of gin Now you gamble somewhere between heaven and hell waiting to cash it all in The only way to live is to love again or just burn out in love’s flame Music and words will kill me or save me once again Now I can’t stand up and you won’t sit down Everything about you is turned up way too loud Come on and dance like the devil is the leader of a country that is ruled by the wealthy few And the armies of the angels got their rifles pointed at you and they're coming down to show you the truth Are you tired of all the politics or just blind to all the lunatics? Mice are small when you they live in a hole but they're huge when they live in a hall The only way to live is to love again or just burn out in love’s flame Music and words will kill me or save me once again Music and words will kill me or save me once again Music and words will kill me or save me once again
