Guns N Roses - You Could Be Mine lyrics

(Stradlin / Rose)

Special Thanks to Bernie Taupin and Elton John*

I'm a cold heartbreaker

Fit ta burn and I'll rip your heart in two

An I'll leave you lyin' on the bed with your ass in the air

I'll be out the door before ya wake

It's nuthin' new ta you

'Cause I think *we've seen that movie too

'Cause you could be mine

But you're way out of line

With your bitch slap rappin'

And your cocaine tongue

You get nuthin' done

I said you could be mine

Now holidays come and then they go

It's nothin' new today

Collect another memory

When I come home late at night

Don't ask me where I've been

Just count your stars I'm home again

'Cause you could be mine

But you're way out of line

With your bitch slap rappin'

And your cocaine tongue

You get nuthin' done

I said you could be mine

You've gone sketchin' too many times

Why don't ya give it a rest

Why

Must you find

Another reason to cry

While you're breakin' down my back n'

I been rackin' out my brain

It don't matter how we make it

'Cause it always ends the same

You can push it for more mileage

But your flaps r' wearin' thin

And I could sleep on it 'til mornin'

But this nightmare never ends

Don't forget to call my lawyers

With ridiculous demands

An you can take the pity so far

But it's more than I can stand

'Cause this couchtrip's gettin' older

Tell me how long has it been

'Cause 5 years is forever

An you haven't grown up yet

You could be mine

But you're way out of line

With your bitch slap rappin'

And your cocaine tongue

You get nuthin' done

I said you could be mine

You should be

You could be mine

Yeah!
