Bobby Long - Sick Man Blues lyrics

The darkness hides your eyes, Though it's not for me to tell You never treat me kind You think I'm unwell It's such a shame It's such a shame You tried to give me up and flirted with my time I guess you broke the promise You made somewhere down the line Oh, you're a struggle Oh, you're a struggle You paid for all my pills that left me in the past You were a good girl, honey You just couldn't make it last And your love carries the rhinestone of a plague So bear in mind the lives that you could save 'Cause I'm bound to walk the darkness again And I'm bound to walk the darkness again I know I'm not that easy to live with day to day If you painted your own picture, Then I'd let you have your say Yeah, I'm a sinner Whoa, I'm a sinner But my love, it sits untainted to the rigors of your stare There ain't anybody like you And the fairness of your hair leaves me stranded It leaves me stranded This life it's too long, too long for me to keep You should bear that in mind and try the pain you reap That you reap That you reap And your love carries the rhinestone of a plague So bear in mind the lives that you could save Your love carries the rhinestone of a plague So bear in mind the lives that you could save That you could save 'Cause I'm bound to walk the darkness again And I'm bound to walk the darkness again And I'm bound to walk the darkness again
