Forrister - Love Song Blues lyrics

Put me in a bed of roses, it'll end my suffering 'Cause there's ghosts inside this city and they love to hear me scream I've got a baby to take care of And she's feelin' pretty weak Stay the hell away from me I need something to help me sleep It gets cold this side of springtime, I can feel it in my bones It's the way you make me shiver with your dulcet vocal tones I've got poison in my veins And you're the one to blame Stay the hell away from me and I won't have to feel that pain Well, a lot of folks'll tell you I just wanna make her mine But I'm the one who won't 'cause she just wants to waste her time I've got patience on my side But it's a long hard ride Stay the hell away from me and I won't have to see that side I call this one my love song blues Don't think that it's directed at you I need some distance, Lord, I need some peace Love will never help me slay that beast
