"Someone help me!" I heard her scream The old man clutched her chest, said, "Ambulance on the way, stay with me" And Johnny called and said, "There's been a murder on the green" Someone help her, it can't be me Standing over her with a gun in my hand I made my baby bleed It's not my fault, she shot first at me And in the blink, blink, blink Of an eye, eye, eye Another young lover dies So they took me to a cell Threw away the key and damned me right back down to hell I said, "Well, I haven't been home in a while" Now I got angels knocking at my door Whispering sweet nothings And I screamed "I can't take any more!" "You're a coward, why don't you end it all?" And in the blink, blink, blink Of an eye, eye, eye Another young lover dies Well, I'm not the only one Who's guilty of committing this crime I sing this song for the girl who met my gun A bullet in the heart It's just another problem I'm working on One more, alright Hey Louie, hey Louie, take us to Chinatown And with my last breath, I said "Preacher, please" To ask the undertaker if he'll partake in some bribery And steal my body and go and bury it on the green Next to my gun, young Annie Will discuss all the arguments with friends and lover's enemies Or maybe we were both just trigger-happy And in the blink, blink, blink Of an eye, eye, eye Another young lover dies Well, I'm not the only one Who's guilty of committing this crime I sing this song for the girl who met my gun A bullet in the heart It's just another problem I'm working on (one more, alright)
