I got two dimes in the telephone Alright No, it's not easy tonight Shotgun fire Anybody home? I got two dimes in the telephone Alright Hell, it's not easy tonight She's in over my head And it's not easy, it's not easy tonight She's in over my head And it's not easy, it's not easy tonight Shotgun fire Anybody home?
