Tramps & Thieves
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.
Two lovin' eyes just as cold as stone
And a heart not far behind
I got two arms to hold ya
And a love that's deaf and blind
Oh baby, just you take one look at me
I'm everything that you want me to be
Ya walk the walk, and talk the talk
You're as lost as lost can be
In my side see me crucified
It's all the same to me
Tell your friends you never laughed so much
We're so close, we could reach out and touch.
Yeah, they call us knaves and curs
Yeah, we're kissing all them girls in the morning.
Ya best believe
We're just a bunch of tramps and thieves
Six am we had to fly to who knows where
We don't know and we don't care
I wanna stay with ya, I wanna lay with ya
Before I tear out my hair
Did I tell ya I loved ya
When I was lying above ya
Yeah, they call us knaves and curs
Yeah, we're kissing all them girls in the morning.
Ya best believe
We're just a bunch of tramps and thieves
Tramps and thieves
Ya best believe
Honey can't ya see
They call us knaves and curs
We're kissing all them girls in the morning.
Ya best believe
We're just a bunch of tramps and thieves
Yeah, tramps and thieves
You can't hide from your heart girl
We'll steal it all away
Yeah tramps and thieves
Y'know your momma should have told you
Yeah tramps and thieves
It means nothing to people like me
Tramps and thieves
Oh no your momma should have told ya
Only tramps and thieves yeah
Only tramps and thieves...
