My shoes are heavy<br /> My feet are winding down<br /> I look for her in comers<br /> But she's not around<br /> What I eat is eating me<br /> It hits me hard<br /> I'm one jack short of a royal flush<br /> A stranger holds the card<br /> <br /> Here come the salvation in the shape of my guitar<br /> And I'm gonna ride it like a shooting star<br /> <br /> I don't want your money<br /> I don't want your soul<br /> I don't need a reason<br /> I just want to get right down and lick it up<br /> <br /> Mother Mercy told me<br /> A picture never lies<br /> She told me no self respecting hero<br /> Ever cries<br /> The prisoner walks in circles<br /> The victim walks alone<br /> Scissors cut the paper<br /> The paper wraps the stone<br /> <br /> Standing at the entrance to the gates of paradise<br /> The lights go down the heat goes up that's when I cry<br /> <br /> I don't want your money<br /> I don't want your soul<br /> <br /> I don't a reason<br /> I just want to get right down and lick it up<br /> <br /> I put my faith in fortune reaching for the sky<br /> The only game in town that gets me high<br /> <br /> I don't want your money<br /> I just want to get right down and lick it up<br /> I don't want your soul<br /> I just want to get right down and lick it up<br /> I don't need a reason<br /> I just want to get right down and lick it up
