PAINT MY NAME BLACK Don't paint my name black Or you'll lose what you had And when I get back You'll be sorry that you treated me bad Treated me bad Don't shout my world down If you've got something to say Come and let me know If you're a man Say it to my face It's a pity It's a crying shame If I hurt your pride Don't you think I'm in a dark place I've got time on my side We talked it over Don't paint my name black Don't knock on my door
Like you're here to stay You can't turn my life around This time I won't sway I've known a dark side of life It troubled me Don't blame me Be kind And you will see Baby Don't paint my name black It's been to long It's for the best To leave a love gone wrong In a place it can rest It's a pity It's a crying shame If I hurt your pride Don't you think I'm in a dark place I've got time on my side We talked it over Don't paint my name black
