Over there in the shadows
|
Hanging out in the corner of my mind
|
Stringing up the gallows
|
Waiting on me to cross that line
|
|
That man's dangerous as hell, a threat to himself
|
If he got out there'd be hell to pay
|
And that's why, my dark side, don't ever see the light of day
|
|
I slowed down on the whiskey
|
Cause there always came a point
|
When I'd have one too many,
|
Tear down every wall in that joint
|
|
I got a wife and got a son that don't know half the stuff I've done
|
And I pray that's the way it stays
|
And that's why my dark side don't ever see the light of day
|
|
You can blame it on my rebel raisin', blame it on the south
|
You can blame it on the words I try to keep here in my mouth
|
It takes a lot to start me up but once that hammer drops
|
You don't want to be the one that tries to make me stop
|
|
All you thugs and ugly mugs dealing drugs and making noise
|
You can kill each other all you want but if you touch my little boy
|
You begging for this bullet will be the last thing that you say
|
Before I let my dark side...
|
|
ha ha
|
|
...come out to play
