Houndmouth - By God lyrics

rate me

By God won’t you please just cut out the light

Susanne won’t you help me to draw the line

Between floozy women is and having cigarettes and wine

Seems to be no room here for my laughter

But you never seemed to mind all those nights before

(Hook)

By God won’t you please just cut out the lights?

But whatever you do

Won’t you leave my candle burnin'

(Verse)

Working for my neck or down at the armory

Tryin to support my dime life style

Boss man tellin’ me I have better get it done

What a way to treat the boy who's your only son

(Hook)

(Verse)

Got your money out on your own time

Stole somebody’s heart my dear,

But it sure as hell wasn't mine

Pick your rags up off my bedroom floor

I done told you one time

You’re not welcome here no more

(Hook)

By God won’t you please just cut out the lights?
