The Gaslight Anthem - Ain't That a Shame lyrics
[The Gaslight Anthem - Ain't That a Shame lyrics]
Well, I'm tired of hearing voices
I don't wanna hear no more so call somebody
Baby… I'll be useless in the morning
My heart is all in tatters
I ain't nobody's saint
I'm just trying not to call you
Trying not to call you
And I learned the rules out with the wolves
I'm vicious now, honey
Cruel and unprincipled
With tears in my eyeballs, wine on my lips
Uh, huh
And all my love, my love, is a plague
Ain't that a shame? Ain't that a shame?
I throb and wince and weep, just the same
I can't feel a thing ain't that a shame?
Now somebody hit the lights
Get the ropes and medicines
And think about it, sugar
And how it's gonna end
Last night I was freezing
Tonight I'm soaking wet
Well, I must've had a fever
Salivating in my bed
And I learned the rules out with the wolves
I'm vicious now, honey, dumb and insatiable
With tears in my eyeballs, your
Name on my lips, uh huh
And all my love, my love, is a plague
Ain't that a shame? Ain't that a shame?
I throb and wince and weep, just the same
I can't feel a thing ain't that a shame?
And all my love
She's a plague… ain't that a shame?
And you know you're gonna wait so long
Time slips away
Till you can't feel the kick, my
How we've changed
I stood on the platform, waiting
In vain… blue light, my baby
And all my love, my love is a plague
Ain't that a shame, ain't that a shame?
Like poisonous fingers right in your veins
Who do you love? Who do you blame?
Nobody knows what trouble I'm in
Ain't that a shame, ain't it a shame?
My poisonous fingers inside your veins
Will get you someday
Now ain't that a shame?
I don't wanna hear no more so call somebody
Baby… I'll be useless in the morning
My heart is all in tatters
I ain't nobody's saint
I'm just trying not to call you
Trying not to call you
And I learned the rules out with the wolves
I'm vicious now, honey
Cruel and unprincipled
With tears in my eyeballs, wine on my lips
Uh, huh
And all my love, my love, is a plague
Ain't that a shame? Ain't that a shame?
I throb and wince and weep, just the same
I can't feel a thing ain't that a shame?
Now somebody hit the lights
Get the ropes and medicines
And think about it, sugar
And how it's gonna end
Last night I was freezing
Tonight I'm soaking wet
Well, I must've had a fever
Salivating in my bed
And I learned the rules out with the wolves
I'm vicious now, honey, dumb and insatiable
With tears in my eyeballs, your
Name on my lips, uh huh
And all my love, my love, is a plague
Ain't that a shame? Ain't that a shame?
I throb and wince and weep, just the same
I can't feel a thing ain't that a shame?
And all my love
She's a plague… ain't that a shame?
And you know you're gonna wait so long
Time slips away
Till you can't feel the kick, my
How we've changed
I stood on the platform, waiting
In vain… blue light, my baby
And all my love, my love is a plague
Ain't that a shame, ain't that a shame?
Like poisonous fingers right in your veins
Who do you love? Who do you blame?
Nobody knows what trouble I'm in
Ain't that a shame, ain't it a shame?
My poisonous fingers inside your veins
Will get you someday
Now ain't that a shame?
