Shattered Cross
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.
You don't mess around with a man in black
You'll say something wrong that you can't take back
You'll go for a ride in his automobile
To a spot in the woods just over the hill
No, you don't mess around with a man in black
You don't fool around with a woman in red
You will wake up alone in a cold barren bed
She'll empty your pockets and rip our your heart
And leave you the ruins of a life torn apart
No, you don't fool around with a woman in red
You never make deals with a guy name "doc"
You'll have a gun in your hands by twelve o'clock
'Neath the sodium lights with your heart in your throat
Your life won't amount toa bottle of smoke
Oh, you never make deals with a guy name "doc"
Don't bring me your tales of temptation and loss
The rags of your dreams
Your shattered cross
I have heard your confession I know who you blame
If you had it all back you'd just lose it again
Can't bank on redemption if you ain't saved
Don't bring me your tales of temptation and loss
Don't bring me the pieces of your shattered cross
