Jamie T - On the Green lyrics

rate me

Someone help me

I heard her scream

The old man clutched her chest

Said ambulance on the way stay with me

And Johnny called said there's been a murder on the green

Someone help her

It can't be me

Standing over her with a gun in my hand

I made my baby bleed

It's not my fault, she shot first me

And in the blink

Of an eye

Another young lover dies

So they took me

To a cell

Threw away the key

And damned me right back down to hell

I said "Well I haven�t been home in a while"

Now I got angels

Knocking at my door

Whispering sweet nothings

And I scream I can't take anymore

You're a coward, why don't you end it all?

And in the blink

Of an eye

Another young lover dies

Well I'm not the only one

Who's guilty of committing this crime

I think this song

Of a girl who met my gun

A bullet in the heart

Is just another problem I'm working on

[Hey Louie, take us to China Town]

And with my last breath

I said "Preacher, please"

To ask the undertaker if he'll partake in some bribery

And steal my body and go and bury it on the green

Next to my gun

Young Annie (?)

Will discuss all the arguments with friends we love as enemies

Oh maybe we were both trigger happy

And in the blink

Of an eye

Another young lover dies

Well I'm not the only one

Who's guilty of committing this crime

I think this song

Of a girl who met my gun

A bullet in the heart

Is just another problem I'm working on
