Well it's four in the morning
|
Rain is a pourin'
|
When you stumble in drunk again
|
Soaked to the bone
|
When you find your way home
|
Hey baby, where you been?
|
Had a few with the boys
|
Made a little noise
|
That's what you said to me
|
I shake my head
|
And help you up to bed
|
And wonder when I'll ever break free
|
From the hell you raised
|
When you gonna turn
|
From your wicked ways?
|
|
I couldn't sleep, from worrying
|
And it's keepin' me quite awake at night
|
Tossin and a turnin' prayin' and a yearnin' for the day
|
You'll see the light
|
Fightin' and a puttin'
|
Lyin' and a hurtin' me
|
More than I ever planned
|
I used to be sad
|
But now I'm just mad
|
And I've taken more than
|
I will stand
|
From the hell you raised
|
When you gonna turn
|
From your wicked ways?
|
|
Ahh..no more grievin'
|
Baby I'm leavin'
|
I'm tired of the endless pain
|
Stayin' 'round here
|
With your women and your beer
|
Is slowly drivin' me insane
|
|
Oh I couldn't sleep
|
And worry it's a keepin' me
|
Wide awake at night
|
Tossin' and a turnin'
|
Prayin' and a yearnin'
|
For the day you'll see the light
|
Gave it my best shot
|
Found out you're not
|
Really even willin' to try
|
What more can I do
|
I'm done puttin' up with you
|
And now I'm gonna say goodbye
|
To the hell you raise
|
When you gonna turn
|
From your wicked ways?
|
|
Oooh well I couldn't sleep
|
And worry it's keepin' me
|
Wide awake at night
|
Tossin' and a turnin'
|
Prayin' and a yearnin'
|
For the day you'll see the light
|
Gave it my best shot
|
Found out you're not
|
Really even willin' to try
|
What more can I do
|
I'm done puttin' up with you
|
Now I'm gonna say goodbye
|
To the hell you raise
|
When you gonna turn
|
From your wicked ways?
|
|
Oh the hell you raise
|
When you gonna turn
|
From your wicked ways?
