I'm Gone

There are things that I will do for a hatchet job too
Ante up, theres a new kid in town
But it wont take long for whats red hot and blonde
To be ashes on the groundThe Manhattan skyline, a bed and a byline
Well, Ive come and Ive cradled your face
And I wont be the last one to commit crimes of passion
With a shoot-out and a chaseOver and over and over and over
Im beckoning, begging and I keep hanging on
Going once, going twice, mercy God, Jesus Christ
And I'm gone, and I'm gone, and I'm goneWell, nothing has changed since the last time I came
Got my pride and my hat in my hand
And I never sleep well and I still kiss and tell
And I do not pay the band
