Why, why you come here for
On my darkest days
I could have died in shame
Instead I live and I praise
Well wouldn't you know
Wouldn't you know
Wouldn't you know
Wouldn't you know
x3
Catcher on the rye, why you break my back?
(On my darkest day)
Yeah you did me on the sly, by the running track
(Instead I live an I pray)
We think of all the people
That we've lost along the way
Wasn't virtue wasn't grace, they made their mistakes
We think of the people
And say wouldn't you know
Wouldn't you know
[music break]
Ahhhhhh ahhhhhhh. Ahhhh ahhhh, ahhhh ahhhh, ahhhh ahhhhh
Ahhhhhh ahhhhhhh. Ahhhh ahhhh, ahhhh ahhhh, ahhhh ahhhhh
I'm in the devils quarters
I'm sitting in his room
Now he's on my shoulders
I've got no space to bloom
Was a bitter pill you made me swallow
More and more each day I dread tomorrow
x2
Why, why you come here for?
On my darkest day
I could have died in shame
Instead I live and I pray
Well wouldn't you know
Wouldn't you know
Wouldn't you know
Wouldn't you know
x3
Yeah wouldn't you know

Hustler
04:26
|

I was so cold
A lonely man with so many friends
I was a hustler with a means to an end
When they tried to make me realise to late
I wanna redirect my fate
They told me to put my work boots on
Start using what I have inside to move on
And polish my performance yes I will
I'm not standing still
It's a no win situation that I'm in
And the boats capsizing will I sink or swim
When they finally let me out my cage
Could I control my rage
See there's a new school of thinking
Everybody wants me on the register
Another one of those lazy days I've been holed up in drizzly greater Manchester
Not being rude, got the blues for my lady down in Elthorne
If I'm a thorn in her side or if I'm slipping and sliding I'll pay hell for it
It's A OK , if we differ on subjects such as TV shows
But not today, we've got something so public everybody knows
I never went to school
I don't even read the news
But I'm nobodies fool
I just sing the blues and nobody knows my name
I'm not just one of these guys coming with no surprises only looking for fame
But it's alright, that's the life I choose was a fast one
But tonight , this loving I'm givings gonna last long
I was dealt a card
Some say my Daddy was a modern day bard
Still I find this shit so hard
I gotta' keep on, I'll be dancing 'till the cats come home
And I'll be walking down this road till they tell me that it doesn't lead to Rome
It's all good, I'll be remembering my time spent here
And I wish she would see my old lady well she better shed a tear
I will break the rules
I will sell your gold as fools
Still I got all the moves
I'm a hustler
[outro]
Damn right I'm a hustler
I'm a hustler yeah I'm a lead you down I'm a hustler

Ooooooh oooooooh oooooh
Ooooooh oooooooh oooooh
You know it's heavy laced
In my mind
It's the time
Where we deny
All our lies
We denied
What I gave to you
I'm taking it back now
Because you did me wrong
You see there's a place
Where I go
When I know
That we deny
All our lies
We denied
What I gave to you
I'm taking it back now
Because you did me wrong
I'm leaving my love alone
Because you lied and shamed me
I'm leaving my love alone
Yeah yeah
No you'll never not know
Yeah yeah

Wooooooooooooooo hoooooooo
Woooooo oooooooooo ooooo oooo
Woooooooooooo ooooooo
And then we cool it down
Yeah ay
Taking it back now
Taking it back now
Whoa oh yeah
Said I'm taking it back
To where we come from
And where we're going
It was a crying shame
It's a bittersweet song
Where we come from
Where we're going
I hope you feel no pain
Because I'm taking it back
To where we come from
And where we're going
Was a crying shame yeah
It's a bittersweet song
Where we come from
And where we're going
I hope you feel no pain
I said I'm taking it back
To where we come from
And where we are going
Is a crying shame yeah
It's a bitter sweet song
Where we come from
And where we're going
