Snake Amongst Me

I'm lookin' for love in all the wrong places,
With a heart full of hate down on worn out faces.
You're quite the sweet talker, with nothin' to offer
Except a fair-weathered hand for me to try and hold on to.

Sweet as honey
Palms up like the Virgin,
I'll still take the west-bound train
Out and down to your coffin.

Since you got what you wanted
And threw me away
My brain's since been haunted
Heart full of dismay.

But I'd pack all my bags up
And do it again
Bone's a-rattlin' down over
To your west-bound coffin.

Fool me once shame on you,
So it goes, or so I've heard.
Still, I love your "crooked little heart"
For helping me feel like I ain't "dancing in the dark".

But I'd pack all my bags up
And do it again
Bone's a-rattlin' down over
To your west-bound coffin.

Because I'm lookin' for love in all the wrong places,
With a heart full of hate down on worn out faces.
You're quite the sweet talker, with nothin' to offer
Except a fair-weathered hand for me to try and hold on to.
