lyrics
LIKE THIS
Lord have mercy and protect my soul
it's time for the Devil to collect his toll
all summer long I've been taking out loans
I don't want to pay with my flesh and my bones
there's a big storm brewing and it's gonna come soon
I see the clouds roll in and they cover the moon
every night it gets a little bit harder to believe
when I pull another ace out of my shirt sleeve
(chorus)
like this
like this
like this
like this
baby watch me now
when I get hungry I always eat
ain't no meat too bloody no sugar too sweet
I stuff myself til I'm good and sick
then I stick my finger down my throat real quick
tonight I'm feeling like a choir boy gone bad
thinking 'bout the better things I used to have
sometimes it hits me like a big surprise
I'm sinking like a stone but I walk away alive
(chorus)
some nights I dream about a blood red Ford
I sit down behind the wheel and I lock the door
I say my prayers and I gun my gas
I always wake up right before I crash
it's true I gamble just to pay my debts
when nobody's looking I mark the deck
once in a while I get myself handcuffed
but just like Houdini I shake it off
