I Got Spades
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I walk in the rain and the street seems to last forever
All I've ever seen got taught to believe is insane
And now it's too late I hang on to a fading memory
Nothing would be like what I thought it would be like that I hate
I got spades
Diamonds made me heartbroken always leave when clubs open
Someone's got a hold all the spades
I drag and I haul but you couldn't care less about me
I'd rather hang out with the dogs in the yard than be a brick in the wall
YEAH
I walk in the rain and there's another one around the corner
Names they change but the faces remain the same
I got spades
Diamonds made me heartbroken always leave when clubs open
Someone's got a hold all the spades
And diamonds are forever meet and get together
Someone's got a hold all the spades
Diamonds made me heartbroken always leave when clubs open
Someone's got a hold all the spades
And diamonds are forever meet and get together
Someone's got a hold all the spades
You made me heartbroken always when the clubs open
Someone's got a hold all the spades
And diamonds are forever meet and get together
Someone's got a hold all the spades
