Patty Loveless - Wicked Ways lyrics

rate me

(Karen Staley)

Well it's four in the morning

Rain is a pourin'

When you stumble in drunk again

Soaked to the bone

When you find your way home

Hey baby, where you been?

Had a few with the boys

Made a little noise

That's what you said to me

I shake my head

And help you up to bed

And wonder when I'll ever break free

From the hell you raised

When you gonna turn

From your wicked ways?

I couldn't sleep, from worrying

And it's keepin' me quite awake at night

Tossin and a turnin' prayin' and a yearnin' for the day

You'll see the light

Fightin' and a puttin'

Lyin' and a hurtin' me

More than I ever planned

I used to be sad

But now I'm just mad

And I've taken more than

I will stand

From the hell you raised

When you gonna turn

From your wicked ways?

Ahh..no more grievin'

Baby I'm leavin'

I'm tired of the endless pain

Stayin' 'round here

With your women and your beer

Is slowly drivin' me insane

Oh I couldn't sleep

And worry it's a keepin' me

Wide awake at night

Tossin' and a turnin'

Prayin' and a yearnin'

For the day you'll see the light

Gave it my best shot

Found out you're not

Really even willin' to try

What more can I do

I'm done puttin' up with you

And now I'm gonna say goodbye

To the hell you raise

When you gonna turn

From your wicked ways?

Oooh well I couldn't sleep

And worry it's keepin' me

Wide awake at night

Tossin' and a turnin'

Prayin' and a yearnin'

For the day you'll see the light

Gave it my best shot

Found out you're not

Really even willin' to try

What more can I do

I'm done puttin' up with you

Now I'm gonna say goodbye

To the hell you raise

When you gonna turn

From your wicked ways?

Oh the hell you raise

When you gonna turn

From your wicked ways?
